WiFi Network Name and Password
The preset WiFi network name (SSID) and password (network key)
are unique to your router, like a serial number. Because the router
automatically uses WiFi security, you don’t need to set it up. The
WiFi settings are on the product label.
We recommend that you use the preset WiFi settings because you
can check the product label if you forget them. NETGEAR genie lets
you change these settings. If you do so, write down the new WiFi
settings and store them in a safe place.
You can write the WiFi settings from your product label in this space
for easy reference.
