NETGEAR Mobile Broadband 11n Wireless Router MBR1310
Because WPA randomly creates the SSID and WPA/WPA2 keys, they might be difficult to
type or remember (that is one reason why the network is so secure). You can change the
wireless settings so that they are easier for you to remember. If you do that, then you will
need to set up the WPS-compatible computers again.
Note:
Making these changes will cause all wireless computers to be
disconnected from network. You will then have to set them up with
the new wireless settings.
To change wireless settings for the network:
1.
Use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer to the router. That way you will not get
disconnected when you change the wireless settings.
2.
Log in to the router and select Wireless Settings (see
Settings
on page 26).
3.
Make the following changes:
Change the wireless network name (SSID) to a meaningful name.
On the WPA/PSK + WPA2/PSK screen, select a passphrase.
Make sure that the Keep Wireless Settings check box is selected in the WPS
Settings screen so that your new settings will not be erased if you use WPS.
4.
Click Apply so that your changes take effect. Write down your settings.
All existing wireless clients are disassociated and disconnected from the router.
5.
For the non-WPS devices that you want to connect, open the networking utility and follow
the utility's instructions to enter the security settings that you selected in Step 3 (the SSID,
WPA/PSK + WPA2/PSK security method, and passphrase).
6.
For the WPS devices that you want to connect, follow the procedure in
page 30 or
WPS PIN Entry
The settings that you configured in Step 3 are broadcast to the WPS devices so that they
can connect to the router.
