Here are the instructions for setting up Wireless security.

How do I activate WPA-PSK on this router ?

To secure your wireless network with a WPA-PSK key, follow the instructions below.

Step 1. Log onto the management page, by opening Internet Explorer (web browser) and typing in the routers IP in the address field (default: 192.168.0.1)

Step 2. Username is ‘admin’ and default password is blank (nothing). Press OK button.

Step 3. Press tab ‘Home’ and then ‘Wireless’ to your left.

Step 4. Select WPA-PSK by pressing the radio button next to WPA-PSK.

Step 5. Make up a passphrase, between 8 and 63 characters. You can use a combination of letters, numbers, symbols and spaces. Make a note of the chosen passphrase, to use on all devices using the wireless network.

Step 6. Press ‘apply’ and then ‘continue’, to save the settings.

Now edit/create the wireless profile on all wireless computers, matching the routers passphrase. AVG coupons
