8. To change the mode, select it from the Mode list.
9. To control the SSID broadcast, select or clear the Enable SSID Broadcast check box.
When this check box is selected, the router broadcasts its network name (SSID) so that it
displays when you scan for local WiFi networks on your computer or WiFi device.
10. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
If you connected wirelessly to the network and you changed the SSID, you are
disconnected from the network.
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 WiFi 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 WiFi device trying to connect to your network with its old settings
(before you changed the settings)? If so, update the WiFi network selection in your
computer or WiFi device to match the current settings for your network.
Change the WiFi Password or Security Level
Your router comes with preset WPA2 or WPA security. The WiFi password that you enter to
connect to your network is unique to your router and is on the product label. NETGEAR
recommends that you use the preset security, but you can change the settings. NETGEAR
recommends that you do not disable security.
To change the WiFi password or security level:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net or http://www.routerlogin.com.
A login screen displays.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and
password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home screen displays.
