Note: The default Network Names (SSIDs) and Network Key (Password) are unique to your Wireless Gateway. If

you’d like to change them, see p. 5. We recommend changing the Network Key (Password).

Step 2. Connect Your Wi-Fi Devices

Now that you have your wireless network information, you’re ready to connect your

Wi-Fi devices (laptops, tablets, mobile devices) to the Wireless Gateway 2.

Follow the steps below for each Wi-Fi device you want to connect to your home

network.

For the best experience from the Wireless Gateway 2, connect to both 2.4 and

5 GHz networks, if your Wi-Fi device supports both networks (p. 6). If it does not,

only connect to the 2.4 GHz network.

If your device supports 5 GHz, you should

see Home-XXXX-5. To connect to 5 GHz,

repeat Steps 2A-2E. If you don’t see your

5 GHz network or you don’t have a 5 GHz

Wi-Fi capable device, skip this step.

Note: For help with the above steps or to learn about Wi-Fi and 5 GHz, see p. 5-7.

Step 3. Log In and Secure the Admin Tool

You can manage your network and security settings using the Wireless Gateway 2’s

Admin Tool. To ensure better security for your Wireless Gateway 2 and home network,

we recommend changing the default password to a password of your own.

A Open a web browser from a connected wired or Wi-Fi device . Go to

http://10.0.0.1 and the Login page appears.

B Enter admin for Username.1Enter password

for Password.

C Click LOGIN and the At a Glance page

appears.

D Click CHANGE PASSWORD for Increased

Security (recommended).

1. Enter “password” in the Current Password

ﬁeld.

2. Create a new password of your choice.2

3. Re-enter your new password.

4. Click “Save”.

5. Your settings should now be saved.

1The username “admin”cannot be changed.

2The password must be at least 8 characters

and may include letters or numbers or a

combination of both (no symbols). For better

security, try using at least 1 number and a mix

of upper and lower case letters.

The Wireless Gateway 2 enables you to personalize your home network. Features that

can be customized using the Admin Tool include:

• ParentalControls: Create rules for different network devices.

• Firewall: Manage network security settings.

• WirelessNetworkInfo:

The default NetworkNames(SSIDs)

can be changed. You may ﬁnd it helpful

to keep the -2.4 and -5 in the Network

Names (SSIDs) to distinguish between

the two network bands.

The default NetworkKey(Password),

which is the same for both 2.4 and

5 GHz network bands, can be changed. You can change each band separately

or use the same password for both. Keep in mind that they are case-sensitive.

Note: To edit your wireless network info in the Admin Tool, go to Gateway > Connection > Wi-Fi.

Wi-Fi Connectivity Tips

If you’re having trouble connecting a Wi-Fi device to your 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi

networks (or if neither network appears in the available networks list), simple actions

may help.

Try the following tips in order. After trying a tip, see if you can connect to your network

by repeating Steps 2A-2F (p. 3-4). If you can’t connect, try the next tip.

Tip Move the Wi-Fi device next to the Wireless Gateway 2.

Tip On the Wi-Fi device, turn the Wi-Fi setting off and then on.

Tip Restart the Wi-Fi device by powering off and then on.

If none of the above tips resolve your connection issue, reset the Wireless Gateway 2.

Caution: Resetting the Gateway will disrupt XFINITY Voice and Internet services for

at least ﬁve minutes. Therefore, during the reset, you’ll be unable to make or

receive any calls, including calls to 911 or emergency services.

Following are two ways to reset the Wireless Gateway 2.

• Use a thin object to press the Reset button on the back panel.

Hold for 2-5 seconds, and then release.

Caution: Holding the Reset button for 15 seconds or more will

restore default factory settings. Any changes you’ve

made to the Wireless Gateway 2 (such as passwords,

parental controls, or ﬁrewall settings) will be lost.

• UnplugtheWirelessGateway2andremovethebatteryfromthe

bottom panel (if you have one). Replace the battery, then replug.

If you change your default

wireless network settings, write

down the information to replace

the default wireless network

settings on p. 2. You’ll need the

new information to connect

Wi‑Fi devices to your network

in the future.

Wireless Gateway 2 Placement

Where you put the Wireless Gateway 2 in your home can affect your connectivity,

range (operating distance), and performance of connected Wi-Fi devices . For

optimal results from the Wireless Gateway 2, follow these guidelines to identify your

home’s ideal location.

• Place the Wireless Gateway 2 in an upright, elevated location (closest to the center

of where you’ll typically use your Wi-Fi devices).

• Minimize the number of walls and ceilings between the Wireless Gateway 2 and

your Wi-Fi devices.

• Place the Wireless Gateway 2 away from electronics that may cause interference

(such as microwaves and cordless phone bases).

5 GHz in Your Home

Most Wi-Fi networks primarily operate in the 2.4 GHz frequency band only, but the

increasingly popular 5 GHz networks offer signiﬁcant advantages. With dual-band

Wi-Fi devices , you’ll experience the beneﬁts of both 2.4 and 5 GHz networks.

Why use 5 GHz?

• Higher speed capability than 2.4 GHz

• Less wireless interference in the 5 GHz band

• Large data, such as video or game ﬁles, download faster than with 2.4 GHz

because 5 GHz can support higher speeds

• Compatible with many newer 5 GHz Wi-Fi consumer electronic devices, such as:

Tablets Mobile Phones

Laptops Game Systems

HD TVs

About Wi-Fi and the Wireless Gateway 2

• Not all Wi-Fi devices support 5 GHz,

especially older ones. If your device is

5 GHz capable, you should see the 5 GHz

Network Name (SSID) in the list of available

networks (p. 3-4). If you don’t, and you’re

unsure if your Wi-Fi device supports 5 GHz,

check the manufacturer’s documentation.

• Although the Wireless Gateway 2 simultaneously broadcasts both 2.4 and 5 GHz,

Wi-Fi devices can connect to only one Wi-Fi network at a time.

• 5 GHz Wi-Fi signals may not travel as far as 2.4 GHz. In areas of your home that

are furthest away from the Wireless Gateway 2, only the 2.4 GHz network may

be available. We recommend connecting to both 2.4 and 5 GHz networks during

initial set-up of all your Wi-Fi devices .

If you’re connected to the Wireless Gateway 2’s 5 GHz network and move out

of the 5 GHz range (move to a different room), your Wi-Fi device may

disconnect and automatically reconnect to your 2.4 GHz (if you’ve connected to it

previously).

Note: When you’re back in the 5 GHz range, go to Wi-Fi settings (p. 3-4) to reconnect to the Wireless

Gateway 2’s 5 GHz network in order to experience its benefits.

• The Wi-Fi bars on your Wi-Fi device indicate signal strength.

• Some Wi-Fi devices support Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS).

WPS lets you set up secure Wi-Fi networks without manually

entering your Wi-Fi network information. Pressing the WPS button

on the Wireless Gateway 2 initiates WPS for both 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi bands. You

can then connect to either band using WPS.
