Manage the Basic WiFi Settings and WiFi Security of the Main
Network
The modem router comes with preset security.This means that the WiFi network name (SSID), network key
(password), and security option (encryption protocol) are preset in the factory. The preset SSID and password are
uniquely generated for every device to protect and maximize your WiFi security.You can find the preset SSID and
password on the product label (see Bottom Panel Product Label on page 17).
IMPORTANT:
We recommend that you do not change your preset security settings. If you do decide
to change your preset security settings, make a note of the new settings and store the
note in a safe place where you can easily find it.

connection to avoid being disconnected when the new WiFi settings take effect.
