The WPS process automatically sets up your wireless computer with the network 
password when it connects. The modem router WPS screen displays a confirmation 
message. 
Specify Basic WiFi Settings
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. You can find the preset SSID and password on the modem router label. The preset 
SSID and password are uniquely generated for every device to maximize your wireless 
security.
NETGEAR recommends that you do not change your preset security settings
If you change 
your preset security settings, make a note of the new settings and store it in a safe place 
where you can easily find it.
If you use a wireless computer to change the wireless network name (SSID) or other wireless 
security settings, you are disconnected when you click the Apply button. To avoid this 
problem, use a computer with a wired connection to access the modem router.
To specify basic wireless settings:
1. 
Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the 
network.
2. 
Type http://routerlogin.net or http://192.168.0.1.
A login screen displays.
3.
