Wireless Setup Guide

Note: When setting up or changing your wireless settings it is a good idea to be plugged into the router with your network cable and not your wireless connection.
          If you are using your wireless connection and make any changes you will lose you wireless connection.

Step 1.

Open your favorite web browser and input your routers ip address in the address bar.
Please note that you must have the http:// in order to connect to your router/modem properly.

Step 2.

Some router/modems require a username and/or password, if yours requires it, enter the routers username and password here.

If you don't know it you can check our list of default router and modem password list here.

If you have changed it and don't remember it you may have to reset your device to factory default using the reset button on most routers.

Step 3.

Once logged into your router click on "Wireless Settings".

For 'Name (SSID)' set a name you would like to call your wireless.
What you put here is what will show up when you are searching for a wireless connection.

For 'Channel' you can choose anything you like. If you have a 2.4 GHz cordless phone and it uses the same channel then your wireless connection will get dropped.

For 'Mode' choose 'g and b'.

For 'Security Options' choose 'WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES]

For 'Passphrase' put in a password of your liking, min 8 chars long.
