If You Lose the User Name or Password

If you lose the user name or password, you can clear them by pressing the
Reset button on the back of the access point for at least five seconds. This
action deletes the password and resets the user name to the factory default
settings for all of the access point's interfaces. All configuration information
is reset to the factory default values, including:
■ User name and password
Console event log (cleared)
■
Network counters (reset to zero)
■
■ Configured IP address
The Reset button is provided for your convenience, but its presence means
that if you are concerned with the security of the access point configuration
and operation, you should make sure the access point is installed in a secure
location.

Setting the SSID

the wireless network. All wireless clients that want to connect to the network
through the access point must set their SSIDs to the same as that of the access
point.
To set the access point SSID, click the Configuration tab and then the
button. Enter a text string up to 32 characters in the SSID box. Click
