Launch the SBG6700-AC Quick Start Wizard
The SBG6700-AC Quick Start Wizard is a seven-step application to help you quickly configure
the default wireless network settings on your SBG6700-AC. It configures your SBG6700-AC
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 SBG6700-AC 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 SBG6700-AC connected to the
Internet, you will be able to make additional network configuration changes to further
customize your wireless home network and connect your wireless devices. See
