I successfully installed my Linksys E3000 router. And it operates well with the assigned wifi network's new name. I have since purchased an Apple iPad, but I cannot join the new network as a "Guest", as I did not copy the guest password at the time of initial installation of the E3000. Should I simply reinstall the provided CD original installation and begin over from the start? If not, what? Thanks for your help! JB
Welcome to Fixya. You don't need to reinstall the cd of the router, You can access the router page so that you will be able to obtain the password or Network Key.
ITo access the router page you need a working computer that is connected to the router. To access the router page just open a browser then type 192.168.1.1, the Default username is admin and the password is admin.
Go to the Wireless Tab select Wireless Security look for the Network Key or Passphrase. You can personalize your Network Key. The Network Key serves as a password on your network to make it secure. Then Save the settings
If this works dont forget to say thanks. Thanks for using Fixya.
