WiFi Network Name and Password
The preassigned WiFi network name (SSID) and password (network
key) are unique to your router, like a serial number. Because the router
automatically uses WiFi security, you don’t need to set it up. The WiFi
settings are on the label on the router.
We recommend that you use the preassigned WiFi settings because you
can check the label if you forget them. You can also log in to the router to
change these settings. If you do so, write down the new WiFi settings and
store them in a safe place.
You can write the WiFi settings from the label on your router in this space
for easy reference. If you change the WiFi settings, write the new settings
here for easy reference and store this booklet in a safe place.
