Reported Problem – WiFi – Lost Passphrase
Tier1 or Tier2 Support:
WiFi should be provided by the D-Link in most communities and the SSID will be the name of that particular community.
- WiFi Standard Password for the YES! Community WiFi is 0738A9q11
- The secondary WiFi Password is the same but with an explanation mark at the end of it 0738A9q11!
To change the WiFi Passphrase on the D-Link follow these instructions.
Connect to the D-Link (Please Read How to connect to the D-Link)
WPA-Personal (PSK)
It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless router before your wireless network adapters.
Please establish wireless connectivity before enabling encryption.
Your wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to the added overhead.
1. Log into the web-based configuration by opening a web browser and entering the IP address of the router (192.168.0.1). Click on Setup and then click Wireless Settings on the left side.
2. Next to Security Mode, select WPA-Personal.
3. Next to WPA Mode, select Auto, WPA2 Only, or WPA Only. Use Auto if you have wireless clients using both WPA and WPA2.
4. Next to Group Key Update Interval, enter the amount of time before the group key used for broadcast and multicast data is changed (3600 is default).
5. Next to Pre-Shared Key, enter a key (passphrase – 0738A9q11). The key is entered as a pass-phrase in ASCII format at both ends of the wireless connection. The pass-phrase must be between 8-63 characters.
6. Click Save Settings to save your settings. If you are configuring the router with a wireless adapter, you will lose connectivity until you enable WPA-PSK on your adapter and enter the same passphrase as you did on the router.
Manual Wireless Connection Setup:
Enable Wireless:
Check the box to enable the wireless function. If you do not want to use wireless, uncheck the box to disable all the wireless functions.
Schedule:
The schedule of time when the wireless settings rules will be enabled. The schedule may be set to Always, which will allow the particular service to always be enabled. You can create your own times in the Tools > Schedules section.
Wireless Network Name:
Service Set Identifier (SSID) is the name of your wireless network. Create a name using up to 32 characters. The SSID is case-sensitive.
Enable Auto Channel Scan:
The Auto Channel Scan setting can be selected to allow the DIR-655 to choose the channel with the least amount of interference. Indicates the channel setting for the DIR-655. By default the channel is set to 6. The channel can be changed to fit the channel setting for an existing wireless network or to customize the wireless network. If you enable Auto Channel Scan, this option will be greyed out.
Visibility Status:
Select visible if you want the SSID of your wireless network to be broadcasted by the DIR-655. If Invisible is selected, the SSID of the DIR-655 will not be seen by Site Survey utilities so your wireless clients will have to know the SSID of your DIR-655 E
