(SSID) or wireless encryption key?

Wireless Network Name (SSID) and encryption key.

settings.
- Make sure you write down these settings so that you can enter them into each wirelessly connected
PC. You will find a dedicated area on the back of this document, this important information for future
use.
4. Why can't I connect to the Internet?

ISP and that your ISP username and password is correct.
- Unplug the power to your modem and router for at least 2 minutes. Power on your modem. Allow 1-2
minutes for it to connect to your ISP. Power on the router. After about a minute, open a web broswer to
see if you can get to the Internet.
