4-Stream AX3000 WiFi 6 Router Model RAX36S The Wireless Settings page displays. 5. To change the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz WiFi password, enter a new password in the Password (Network Key) field. The Password (Network Key) field displays for the following WiFi security options: • WPA2-Personal [AES]: Requires a password that contains 8 to 63 characters (or 64 hexadecimal characters). • WPA-Personal [TKIP] + WPA2-Personal [AES]: Requires a password that contains 8 to 63 characters (or 64 hexadecimal characters). • WPA3-Personal: Requires a password that contains 8 to 127 characters (or 128 hexadecimal characters). Note: By default, your password is hidden. To display your password, click the icon next to the Password field. 6. To change the WiFi security option for the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz WiFi network, select a Security Options radio button: • None: An open WiFi network that does not provide any security. Any WiFi device can join the WiFi network. We recommend that you do not use an open WiFi network. • WPA2-Personal [AES]: The default setting, which enables WiFi devices that support WPA2 to join the router's WiFi network. WPA2 provides a secure connection but some older WiFi devices do not detect WPA2 and support only WPA. If your network includes such older devices, select WPA-Personal [TKIP] + WPA2-Personal [AES] security. • WPA-Personal [TKIP] + WPA2-Personal [AES]: Enables WiFi devices that support either WPA or WPA2 to join the router's WiFi network. However, WPA-Personal [TKIP] is less secure than WPA2-Personal [AES] and limits the speed of WiFi devices to 54 Mbps. • WPA/WPA2 Enterprise: Requires that your WiFi network can access a RADIUS server. For more information, see Set up WPA/WPA2 Enterprise WiFi security on page 70. • WPA3-Personal : Enables WiFi devices that support WPA3 to join the WiFi network. WPA3 is the latest security standard, uses SAE encryption, and is more secure than WPA2. If all devices on your network support WPA3, we recommend that you use this security option. Note: If you did not change the WiFi password, the default password displays. The default password is printed on the router label. Manage Network Settings 69 User Manual
