Secure the Wi-Fi Connection

By default, the TV-Hub's wireless settings are
configured for the following:
• Wireless Mode: AP (Access Point)
• SSID: TV-Hub-<TV-Hub serial number>
• IP Address: 172.16.0.1
• Security Mode: Off
KVH strongly advises that you select the
WPA_PSK security mode as shown in Figure 46
and assign a unique password to prevent
unauthorized access to the TV-Hub (at the web
interface, go to Settings > Network Settings). If
you keep the default settings, you're allowing
anyone to access the TV-Hub with their mobile
device.
IMPORTANT!
KVH strongly recommends that you keep the
TV-Hub set to AP (Access Point) wireless
mode. If you select IF (Infrastructure) mode to
connect the TV-Hub to your onboard
network, you will no longer be able to access
the TV-Hub's web interface directly.
