• RADIUS server Shared Secret. Enter the shared secret (RADIUS password) that
is used between the router and the RADIUS server during authentication of a
WiFi user.
7. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
8. Make sure that you can reconnect over WiFi to the network with its new security
settings.
If you cannot connect over WiFi, check the following:
• Is your computer or mobile device connected to another WiFi network in your
area? Some mobile devices automatically connect to the first open network without
WiFi security that they discover.
• Is your computer or mobile device trying to connect to your network with its old
settings (before you changed the settings)? If so, update the WiFi network selection
in your computer or mobile device to match the current settings for your network.

Configure WEP Legacy WiFi Security

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security is a legacy authentication and data encryption
mode that is superseded by WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK. WEP limits the WiFi transmission
speed to 54 Mbps (the router is capable of speeds of up 800 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band).
Tip: If you want to change the WiFi settings of the router's main network, use a wired
connection to avoid being disconnected when the new WiFi settings take effect.
To configure WEP security:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router 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 Dashboard displays.
