manual abstract
See Guest Networks on page 38 for instructions on how to set up a guest network. Manual Method 1. Open the software that manages your wireless connections on the wireless device (laptop computer, gaming device, iPhone) that you want to connect to your wireless modem router. This software scans for all wireless networks in your area. 2. Look for your network and select it. If you did not change the name of your network during the setup process, look for the default WiFi network name (SSID) and select it. The default SSID is located on the product label on the bottom of the wireless modem router. 3. Enter the wireless modem router password and click Connect. The default wireless modem router passphrase is located on the product label on the bottom of the wireless modem router. 4. Repeat steps 1–3 to add other wireless devices. Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) Method Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is a standard for easily adding computers and other devices to a home network while maintaining security. To use WPS, make sure that all wireless devices to be connected to the network are Wi-Fi certified and support WPS. During the connection process, the client gets the security settings from the wireless modem router so that every device in the network has the same security settings. If your wireless device supports WPS (Push 'N' Connect), follow these steps: 1. Press the WPS button on the wireless modem router top panel. 2. Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your wireless device, or follow the WPS instructions that came with the device. The device is now connected to your wireless modem router. 3. Repeat steps 1–2 to add other WPS wireless devices. 3.
