WiFi Network Name and Password
The preassigned 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 router label.
You can also log in to the router to change the WiFi settings.
You can write the WiFi settings from the router label in this space for easy
reference. If you change the WiFi settings, write the new settings here for
easy reference and store this booklet in a safe place.
