Re: How to set a security cod for wifi
This is a Quick and easy fix!
- Use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer to any one of the four LAN ports of the NETGEAR router.
- In a web browser, enter the router's IP address - either http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 by default.
- When prompted for a Username and Password, enter the default username and password (admin; password) unless you have already changed it. NETGEAR recommends changing the default password to increase the security of your network.
Select Wireless Settings from the Setup menu in the left-hand navigation bar.
- Under Wireless Network, enter your desired network name in the Name (SSID) box.
- Under Security Options, select WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES].
- Under Security Options (WPA-PSK + WPA2-PSK), enter your desired network password into the Passphrase box.
-
- WRITE DOWN or KEEP NOTE of your network name, security option and passphrase - you will require them to connect wireless computers and devices to your network.
- Click Apply to save the settings.
