About the WiFi networks
The router provides three WiFi networks:
Main network: The main WiFi network of the router broadcasts simultaneously in
the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio bands. The router supports automatic bandsteering
between these two radio bands in the main WiFi network. The main network is
enabled by default. You cannot disable the main network, or broadcast of the 2.4 GHz
and 5 GHz radio bands in the main network. You can change the WiFi network name
(SSID), security option, and password for the main network, all of which are unique
to the main network. However, if you change the following settings for the main
network, the changes apply to all WiFi networks on the router:
-
AX feature: By default, the AX feature is always enabled for the 2.4 GHz and
5 GHz radio bands. You can disable the AX feature for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz
radio bands individually.
-
Channels: You can set fixed channels for the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz radio bands
individually.
IoT network: The Internet of things (IoT) network is enabled by default so that you
can connect WiFi-enabled smart devices that can range from light bulbs to appliances.
If you do not need the IoT network, you can disable it. You can select the radio bands
for the IoT network and change the WiFi network name (SSID), security option, and
password, all of which are unique to the IoT network.
Guest network: The optional guest network is disabled by default, but you can
enable it so that guests and visitors can connect to your WiFi without compromising
the security of your other WiFi networks. You can change the WiFi network name
(SSID), security option, and password for the guest network, all of which are unique
to the guest network.
Manage the settings for the main WiFi
network
The router and satellite come preset with the same WiFi network name (SSID) and the
same WiFi security. You can find the SSID and password on the router label and on the
satellite label. If you log in to the router and change the WiFi settings, the router
automatically sends the new settings to the satellite.
If you change your WiFi settings, make a note of the new settings and store it in a safe
place where you can easily find it.
