Change the WiFi password or the WiFi
security
The router and satellite come preset with the same WiFi network name (SSID) and the
same WiFi security. You can find the SSID and password on the router label and on the
satellite label.
If you log in to the router and change the WiFi settings, the router automatically sends
the new settings to the satellite. We recommend that you do not disable security.
To change the WiFi password or the WiFi security:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected your
mesh network.
2.
Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time
that you logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select Wireless.
The Wireless Settings page displays.
5. To change the WiFi password, enter a new password in the Password (Network
Key) field.
You must enter a phrase of 8 to 63 characters. The Password (Network Key) field
displays if the WPA2-PSK [AES], WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES], or
WPA3-Personal security radio button is selected.
6. To change the WiFi security, select a Security Options radio button.
