c. For a non-NETGEAR wireless adapter, configure it to match your settings exactly. If you
changed the default Network Name (SSID), be sure to use the correct Network Name
(SSID) you set in the range extender.
Warning: The Network Name (SSID) is case sensitive. Typing nETgear will not work.
Note: Wireless security is disabled by default on the WGX102. For information about configuring
the WGX102 to use security settings, see Chapter 5, “Wireless Configuration”.
3. LOG IN TO THE WGX102 AND CHANGE TO ROUTER MODE
a. From your wireless computer, open a browser such as Internet Explorer or Netscape®
Navigator. Connect to the range extender by typing http://192.168.0.101 in the address
field of your browser, then click Enter.
For security reasons, the range extender has its own user name and password. When
prompted, enter admin for the user name and password for the password, both in lower
case letters. To change the password, see “Changing the Administrator Password” on page
6-7.
Note: The range extender’s user name and password are not the same as any user name or
