NETGEAR recommends that you do not change your preset security
your preset security settings, make a note of the new settings and store it in a safe place
where you can easily find it.
If you use a wireless computer to change the wireless network name (SSID) or other wireless
security settings, you are disconnected when you click Apply. To avoid this problem, use a
computer with a wired connection to access the router.
To view or change basic wireless settings:

1. Select BASIC > Wireless.
The screen sections, settings, and procedures are explained in the following sections.
2. Change the settings as needed.
3. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
If you were connected wirelessly to the router and you changed the SSID or wireless
security, you are disconnected from the network.
4. If you changed the settings, make sure that you can connect wirelessly to the network with
its new settings.
If you cannot connect wirelessly, check the following:
• Is your computer or wireless device connected to another wireless network in your
area? Some wireless devices automatically connect to the first open network (without
wireless security) that they discover.
• Is your computer or wireless device trying to connect to your network with its old
settings (before you changed the settings)? If so, update the wireless network
selection in your computer or wireless device to match the current settings for your
network.
