Configure wireless connection in vodafone bewan router setup

Asked By Jhon Anderson 20 points N/A Posted on - 10/03/2012

I am not really good in computers but I need to setup the wireless security for our Vodafone bewan router setup. Right now anyone can use the wireless connection. The security was configured before by an IT guy but we reset the modem due to some problems. Now the setting is back to default.

Hi,

 

To Setup your wireless security on your router,

below are the instructions;

 

– Connect first your computer wired to the router and make sure

that internet is working fine

– check the default gateway of your computer,on the lower right side of your screen, beside the clock,right click and select Properties

– Take note of the numbers for the default gateway

– Or the other way to get it is to click on start>run> type cmd

– Black screen will open with a blinking cursor

– Type ipconfig and press Enter,again take note of the default gateway

– Open Internet Explorer and clear the address bar, type the default gateway or     the ip address of the router(most routers use 192.168.1.1)

– It will ask for a username and password,you may ask your router provider for the 

  settings

– On the user interface of the router, you need to look for wireless settings so that you can enable wireless security

 

– there different levels of wireless security, you can choose between WEP,WPA and WPA2 encryption

 

– Before setting up wireless security, don't forget to change also your wireless network name from the default name so that you can recognize it if you will connect

– For the wireless security, once you have chosen the type of encryption that you want, input the password or network key that you want and again save the settings

 

– After the setup, unplug the wire from the router so that you will try to connect wirelessly

 

– Look for the wireless icon on the bottom tray, right click and choose view wireless network (assuming that your using windows xp)
