First connect to Wi-Fi in the initial state. It is strictly forbidden to continue to use it like this.

"make your own Wi-Fi 's'I don't know 'happy! "A list of serial reports

　By the last time, I was at the place where I connected the Wi-Fi router to the network line and turned on the power. If there is no router in the front segment of the Wi-Fi router on the line side, the line connection is promoted in the screen of the first visit. In the presence of the router, the router can act doubly, or automatically sense the front router, switch to access point mode, and connect to the Internet. In this state, the Wi-Fi router is first connected to the line. This time, from this state, try to use a smartphone to make an experimental connection through Wi-Fi. The simple connection of pressing the button will be explained next time. Please wait a moment when you want to try.

　For initial experimental Wi-Fi connections, use initial SSID and encryption keys (sometimes with passwords, Wi-Fi passwords, etc.) that can be used directly in the factory state when opening the box. This is to connect to the first time, to make initial settings, and so on.

　Wi-Fi connections can be made through a set of initial SSID and encryption keys, but cannot continue to be used. This is absolutely! I hope you will remember this as an agreement.

　The initial SSID and encryption key of the factory state vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, but the SSID is all the same (almost disappeared recently), some of them use Mac addresses, and the encryption key may also crack the rules. In terms of security, it is often in a state of danger [* 1]. These are used only when set up, then changed to the original string, and then used again. In particular, the encryption key must be changed. It must not be used continuously for such a long time. If the setting is interrupted halfway, you want to power off the Wi-Fi router with the initial SSID and encryption key status as a precaution. The methods of these changes will be explained later.

[* 1]. From the mode of the initial SSID, it is easy to tell the manufacturer and the type of machine, and after knowing the type of machine, you also know the distribution mode of the initial encryption key. Since the initial encryption key is also mechanically distributed at the factory, the possibility of regular analogy is not zero for phrases that are not conducive to analysis.

　If you can connect through Wi-Fi, access the settings screen of the Wi-Fi router. Access using web browsers such as Google Chrome and Safari is a common pattern. In order to display the settings screen on the web browser, enter the value of the IP address represented by four dotted blocks such as "192.168.XXX.1" in the address bar [* 2] and press the Enter key to access it. The IP address inherent to this model must be written in the manual.

　Depending on the manufacturer, there are also special mobile applications that can be set up and managed. In that case, you don't need to enter an IP address, so it's easier to understand.

[* 2]. This value is the IP address of the IPv4 itself, which can assign a specific IP address among the private IP addresses used within the LAN to access the router. If you think it's a spell that displays the setting screen, enter it correctly. By the way, it can also be accessed on the Internet with a global address of the same structure. For example, Google's word is "172.217.31.163". I want to try typing it.

　When logging in to the settings screen, prompt for ID and password. When accessing the setting screen for the first time, it is sometimes forced to set the login password for the setting screen. This initial administrative password is usually the same in the manufacturer and is a simple password, so I think I must change it. Connect PC to the LAN port of the Wi-Fi router, and if you do not change the management password from the initial value, you will be allowed to access the management screen. Be careful.

　In some cases, the screen that sets the Internet connection is automatically displayed when the settings screen is accessed. In this case, enter according to the screen and complete the connection. Next time I would like to briefly explain how to set up an Internet connection.
