A login screen displays.

3. Enter the modem router user name and password.

The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and

The Router’s PIN field displays the PIN that you use on a registrar (for example, from the

Network Explorer on a Vista Windows computer) to configure the modem router’s

wireless settings through WPS.

5. (Optional) Select or clear the Disable Router’s PIN check box.

The PIN function might temporarily be disabled when the modem router detects

suspicious attempts to break into the modem router’s wireless settings by using the

modem router’s PIN through WPS. You can manually enable the PIN function by clearing

the Disable Router’s PIN check box.

6. (Optional) Select or clear the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box.

By default, the Keep Existing Wireless Settings check box is selected. NETGEAR

recommends that you leave this check box selected.

If you clear this check box, the next time a new wireless client uses WPS to connect to

the modem router, the modem router wireless settings change to an automatically

generated random SSID and security key.

7. Click the Apply button.

Your changes are saved.

Set Up a Wireless Card Access List

By default, any wireless computer or device that is configured with the correct SSID is

allowed access to your wireless network. For increased security, allow only specific wireless

computers and devices to access the wireless network based on their MAC addresses.

 To set up wireless card access:

1. Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the

network.
