configuration
Before configuring the wireless access point and related fea‐
tures such as security setting you need to unlock the MP
modem configuration.
This setting is password protected. To unlock the MP modem
configuration:
1. In Watcher, select Tools > Options > Wireless Access Point >
Password > Current and enter the current password. (The
default password is MP3G .)
The MP modem configuration remains open for about five
minutes. If you encounter an error message while setting
up the wireless access point parameters, you may need to
reopen the configuration lock to continue setting the
parameters.
Change the password (optional)
You can change the factory default password, but you should
consider this carefully.
Note: If you change the password and forget the new password,
before changing any of the password-protected features you need to
reset the modem to all the factory defaults. See “Reset the MP
modem to factory defaults” on page 53.
To change the password:
1. In Watcher, go to Tools > Options > MP > Wireless Access
Point .
2. Under Password, select Set new password , and from the
drop‐down list, select Yes .
3. In the New password field, type the desired password. (It
must be between 4 and 15 characters long.)
4. Click OK .
