Change Wi-Fi Security Types
You can set the mobile hotspot’s Wi-Fi security types in the
AT&T Wi-Fi Manager home page.
On the AT&T Wi-Fi Manager home page:
Log in as Administrator.
Click Settings on the navigation menu on the left side.
Click Wi-Fi > Basic tab.
Select the desired security types for the Main Wi-Fi and
the Guest Wi-Fi networks. It is recommended that you use
WPA2(AES)-PSK whenever possible.
Security Type (the most common mode):
• WPA2(AES)-PSK — Recommended. Other users can access
your mobile hotspot only if they enter the correct password.
• OPEN — Not recommended. Anyone can access your
Wi-Fi network without a password and you are responsible
for charges incurred.
• SHARED — Standard Wi-Fi authorization and encryption.
Other users can access your mobile hotspot if they enter the
pre-defined password.
• WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK — Recommended as the most secure
method. Depending on the Wi-Fi interaction between the
mobile hotspot and the connecting device, either WPA-PSK
or WPA2-PSK may be used. This offers compatibility with
devices that support only WPA-PSK authentication.
Click Apply.
Reconnect your Wi-Fi devices, if necessary, using the new
Wi-Fi credentials. See Connect to the Internet on page 10.
