8. Make sure that you can reconnect over WiFi to the network with its new security settings.
If you cannot connect over WiFi, check the following:
• If your computer or mobile device is already connected to another WiFi network in your area,
disconnect it from that WiFi network and connect it to the WiFi network that the router provides.
Some WiFi devices automatically connect to the first open network without WiFi security that they
discover.
• If your computer or mobile device is trying to connect to your network with its old settings (before
you changed the settings), update the WiFi network selection in your computer or mobile device to
match the current settings for your network.
• Does your computer or mobile device display as an attached device? (SeeView Devices Currently
on the Network on page 147.) If it does, it is connected to the network.
• Are you using the correct network name (SSID) and password?
