Configure your Wireless Settings
The Access Point creates two Wi-Fi networks:
a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network and a 5.0GHz Wi-Fi
network.
The IDs of your Wi-Fi networks are:
Amped_APA20_2.4 and Amped_APA20_5.0
To change them, enter a new name in the SSID field.
Users connecting wirelessly to the Access Point will
use this ID to identify your Wi-Fi network.
The default Security Key (WPA/WPA2 Mixed
Mode) for both (2.4GHz and 5.0GHz) networks
is: wireless
To change it, enter a new key in the Security Key
field. The key must be at least 8 characters long.
Click Next to apply your settings. The Access
Point will reboot.
The web menu will now apply your settings.
This process may take up to 90 seconds.
Do not refresh the web page. The page will
automatically reload with the summary.
If you are connected wirelessly to the Access
Point, you will need to reconnect after the
Access Point reboots.
