Router Label
The label on the side of the router shows the router’s MAC address, serial number, security
PIN, IMEI number, and factory default login information. It also contains the SSID and
passphrase that is unique to each router.
SSID and Passphrase
Computers and devices that connect to the router wirelessly and do not support WPS use
this unique SSID and passphrase information to make the connection. See
Add Wireless
Computers That Do Not Support WPS
on page 39 for more information.
Restore Factory Settings
Insert a paperclip into the hole and press for 6 seconds. Pressing the Restore Factory
Settings button causes the Power LED to blink briefly. After the button is held down for more
than 6 seconds, the Power LED blinks amber and turns green as the router resets to the
factory defaults. See
Factory Default Settings
on page 109 for the factory defaults.
Power Your Router On
Place the router in a central location relative to where you want coverage in your home for
optimal network performance. Here are some additional considerations:
Avoid physical obstructions whenever possible that might weaken Wi-Fi signals.
Avoid placing the router close to reflective or metal surfaces, such as mirrors, metal file
cabinets, stainless steel countertops that can lessen both network range and
performance.
