USB modem).

Wireless Network Connection

1) Find the network.

On a WiFi-enabled computer or device,

open the window or dropdown menu that allows you to access

wireless networks. The MBR95 network will appear on the list:

select this network.

2) Log in.

You will need to input the

Default Password

when

prompted. The Default Password is provided on the product

label found on the bottom of your router (this password is the

last eight digits of the router’s MAC address, which can be found

on the product box or on the product label).

NOTE: If more than one MBR95 wireless router is visible, you can find the correct unit by checking for its

SSID

(service set identifier; the unique

name of the local network). The SSID can be found on the bottom of the router in the form MBR95-

xxx, where “xxx” is the last 3

digits of the

router’s MAC address.
