Setting Up a Wireless Network
Connection
ARRIS recommends that you confirm that your computer can connect to the Internet using an
Ethernet connection before configuring your wireless network.
You must already have Internet access in your home before setting up a wireless network
connection. Also, make sure your computer and the SBR-AC1750 are connected through an
Ethernet connection.
Choose one of the following options to set up your wireless network connection:
•
Launch the SBR-AC1750 Quick Start Wizard
•
Set Up a Wireless Network Using Your Computer
•
Use the SBR-AC1750 WPS Pairing Button
After setting up your wireless network connection, check that your wireless network connection
was set up properly. See
Test Your Wireless Network Connection
for more information.
Launch the SBR-AC1750 Quick Start Wizard
The SBR-AC1750 Quick Start Wizard is a six-step application to help you quickly configure the
default wireless network settings on your SBR-AC1750. It configures your wireless network name
(SSID), Wi-Fi Security key (network password), and Wi-Fi Security code.
IMPORTANT NOTE
: The quick start wizard uses the default settings already configured
for your SBR-AC1750 to help you quickly set up your wireless home network. However,
the wizard will only let you change the wireless network name (SSID) and Wi-Fi Security
key (network password). After completing the wizard and getting your SBR-AC1750
connected to the Internet, you will be able to make additional network configuration
changes to further customize your wireless home network settings and connect your
wireless devices. See
Creating a Wireless Network
for more information.

letters, numbers, and symbols. It should be as unique as possible to protect your wireless
network and deter hackers or unauthorized access to your wireless network.

password to protect your wireless network from unauthorized access. See
