How Do I Connect My Device to the Router?

1. From the device you want to connect with (smartphone, tablet, laptop computer, gaming

device), go to your device setting or software that manages your wireless connections.

2. Scan for new or available devices to connect to.

3. The device scans for all wireless networks in your area. Look for your Wi-Fi network. (The

SSID and passphrase are preconfigured and are printed on the side of your router.)

4. Select the name of your Wi-Fi network, which appears as “Verizon – MBR1515 – XXXX”

(where X = last 4 digits of the MAC address), and connect.

Note: For a WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) connection, sometimes referred

to as Push 'N' Connect, press the WPS button on the router. Within 2

minutes, follow the software instructions on your device to complete

the WPS process. See WPS Button on page 37.
