Specify Basic WiFi Settings
The router comes with preset security. This means that the WiFi network name (SSID),
network key (password), and security option (encryption protocol) are preset in the factory.
You can find the preset SSID and password on the product label.
Note:
The preset SSID and password are uniquely generated for every
device to protect and maximize your wireless security.
NETGEAR recommends that you do not change your preset security settings
.
If you change
your preset security settings, make a note of the new settings and store it in a safe place
where you can easily find it.
If you use a wireless computer to change the SSID or other wireless security settings, you
are disconnected when you click the
Apply
button. To avoid this problem, use a computer with
a wired connection to access the router.
To specify basic wireless settings:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.

6.
To control the SSID broadcast, select or clear the
Enable SSID Broadcast
check box.
When this check box is selected, the router broadcasts its network name (SSID) so that it
displays when you scan for local WiFi networks on your computer or wireless device.
7.
To change the network name (SSID), type a new name in the
Name (SSID)
field.
The name can be up to 32 characters long and it is case-sensitive. The default SSID is
randomly generated and is on the product label. If you change the name, make sure to
write down the new name and keep it in a safe place
.
8.
To change the wireless channel, select a number in the
Channel
list.
In some regions, not all channels are available. Do not change the channel unless you
experience interference (shown by lost connections or slow data transfers). If this
happens, experiment with different channels to see which is the best.
When you use multiple access points, it is better if adjacent access points use different
channels to reduce interference. The recommended channel spacing between adjacent
access points is four channels (for example, use Channels 1 and 5, or 6 and 10).

To change the wireless speed, select a setting in the Mode menu.

selection in your computer or wireless device to match the current settings for your
network.
