WiFi Setup using the Configuration Manager if you want to keep your current network name and password and for some reason you can't use the App. We strongly suggest that you do this by using the MotoManage App mentioned above. If that's not possible, please continue below. Please note that if your previous network name was 5 or less characters or the wireless password was 7 or less characters, you cannot change the Motorola password to match your previous network. If possible, connect a computer with Ethernet to any of your modem/router's Ethernet ports. You can also do this configuration using WiFi by using your smartphone or another WiFi device that has a Web browser. If you need to do this WiFi setup by using your smartphone or other WiFi device, first connect your WiFi device to your new modem/router using the wireless network name (SSID) and password printed on the modem/router's bottom label. (You don't need an Internet connection to do this.) 1 Now write down the wireless network name and password for your original network. Most WiFi devices work on either the 2.4 GHz band, or both the 2.4 GHz and the 5 GHz band. You may have a wireless network name and password for just the 2.4 GHz band; or you may have a wireless network name and password for both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. 2 If you haven't already logged into the Configuration Manager, follow the steps in the section above labeled Configuration Manager to do so. 9
