Security of the Main Network
The router comes with preset security. This means that the WiFi network name (SSID),
network key (password), and security option (encryption protocol) are preset in the
factory. The preset SSID and password are uniquely generated for every device to
protect and maximize your WiFi security. You can find the preset SSID and password
on the router label (see Router
Label on page 13).
IMPORTANT: If you change your preset security settings, make a note of the new
settings and store the note in a safe place where you can easily find it.
