Basic Wireless Settings - NETGEAR WM2500RP User Manual

Basic Wireless Settings

You can view or configure the wireless network setup.
The WiFi bridge/extender comes with preset WPA2-PSK security. This means that the WiFi
network name (SSID), wireless network password (also referred to as the passphrase or
network key), and security option (authentication and encryption protocol) are preset in the
factory. You can find the preset SSID and password on the WiFi bridge/extender label. The
preset SSID and password are uniquely generated for every device to protect and maximize
your wireless security.
WARNING:
Best practice is not to change your preset security settings. If you
do decide to change your preset security settings, make a note of
the new settings and store it in a safe place where you can easily
find it.
Note: If you use a wireless computer to change the SSID or other wireless
security settings, you are disconnected when you click the Apply
button. To avoid this situation, use a computer with a wired
connection to access the WiFi bridge/extender.

To view or change basic wireless settings:
