Answer | The W6B default Wi-Fi credentials, wireless name, and password are listed in the Web Manager. By default the W6B Wi-Fi is disabled and does not broadcast. The Wi-Fi network name (SSID) is unique and identifies the wireless network.  The Wi-Fi password is also known as the wireless security key, encryption key, or passphrase. Wi-Fi 6E supported clients (such as smartphones and laptops) will connect to the Wi-Fi network using the wireless password. The custom Wi-Fi name and password can be retrieved by logging into the W6B Web Manager.
