By default, the TG862 is setup to use WPA wireless security with a specific string of character keys (sometimes referred to as the wireless password). In this case, that string of character keys would need to be entered into a wireless client (such as a laptop or tablet) in order to have wireless connectivity.
At times, it may be desired to change the wireless key. This can be accomplished by logging into the GUI (Graphical User Interface) of the TG862. This document describes how to change the wireless network key for the TG862.
