How to configure the wireless network name (SSID) and wireless password (WPA Key)

1

Connect your PC to the router via an Ethernet cable or connect wirelessly to the dlinkxxxx (xxxx is the last 4 digits of mac address) from the Wi-Fi list of the device you want to connect from. When prompted for a password, use the WPA key printed at the bottom of the router or by pushing the WPS button at the back of the Router.

Note: If you are having trouble connecting the PC wirelessly then try connecting it by wired connection to one of the LAN ports on the back of the LTE Router.

2

Access the router’s web interface by entering its IP address into a web browser on the address bar http://192.168.0.1 then press enter.

3

The page will be prompted to enter a username and password. The default username and the default password are:

Username: admin Password: (as printed on the device label bottom of the router)

Note: If you have changed the password and cannot remember it, you will need to reset the router to factory defaults.

4

Once login, Click on the ‘Wireless’ tab at the top of the page then ‘Basic Settings’

5

Look for SSID field, remove the default Wi-Fi name (d-link or dlink-xxxx), and enter a new one.

6

After making changes, Click Save & Apply

7

To Modify the Wireless Password (WPA Key), click on the ‘Wireless’ tab at the top of the page then ‘Security’.

8

Within the Wireless Settings, you will find an option for security mode. Typically, you can choose between WEP, WPA, WPA2, WPA3, or WPA2/WPA3-Mixed for Encryption.

9

Select the desired security mode (WPA2/WPA3-mixed is recommended for better security)

10

Then look for Pre-Shared Key at the bottom of the page. Remove all the dots and enter a new Wi-Fi password.
