Actiontec - MI424-WR (Verizon Firmware)
Wireless Setup Guide
Note: When setting up or changing your wireless settings it is a good idea to
be plugged into the router with your network cable and not your wireless
connection.
If you are using your
wireless connection and make any changes you will lose you wireless connection.
Special Note:
The wireless is preset at the factory to on and WEP 64/40 bit and the SSID and
WEP Key are firmware provided to each unique router MAC address. A sticker on
the bottom is provided to ID each of these in this order (top to bottom) MAC /
WEP /SSID. Reset brings it all back to the sticker values.
Step 1.
Open your favorite web browser and input your routers ip address in the address bar.
Please note that you must have the http:// in order to connect to your
router/modem properly.
