WiFi Terms

Before we get started there is a little bit of background info that you should be familiar with.

Your wireless network needs to have a name to uniquely identify it from other wireless networks. If you are not sure what this means we have a guide explaining what a wireless name is that you can read for more information.

Wireless Password

An important part of securing your wireless network is choosing a strong password.

Wireless Channel

Picking a WiFi channel is not always a simple task. Be sure to read about WiFi channels before making the choice.

You should almost definitely pick WPA2 for your networks encryption. If you are unsure, be sure to read our WEP vs WPA guide first.

  • Next, find the Network name (SSID) and enter a new name. This name helps to distinguish your network from other nearby networks. It doesn't really matter what you enter here but we recommend avoiding personal information. Click this link to learn more about this topic.
  • Below that is the Authentication. This is the type of security you plan on using for your network. The best choice is WPA2 (High security). To find out more about this subject, click this link.
  • Next is the Passphrase/Key. This is the password you need to type into your wireless devices that you want to connect to the internet using this router. It is recommended that you use a minimum of 20 characters here. Use a mix of symbols, numbers, and letters in your password. Clicking this link takes you to our guide about creating a strong password.
  • Click the Apply button when you are finished.

Possible Problems when Changing your WiFi Settings

After making these changes to your router you will almost definitely have to reconnect any previously connected devices. This is usually done at the device itself and not at your computer.
