Once you have correctly accessed the Smart RG page, you will be able to do several tasks that include the ability to change the password of your wireless network, change the name of your wireless network (aka SSID) and hide your wireless network (aka SSID) so that others can not easily detect it when searching for wireless networks.

• In the browser URL window, type in the IP address that is specific to your individual modem as pictured below. (Find your IP address on your computer, like in the 'System Preferences' of an Apple Mac. It should be stated as your 'Router Number' and ends '.1' since your and other computers will each have sequentially higher numbers. Alternatively, ask your internet service provider). The format looks like this 127.123.1.1/admin or 127.123.1.1/. Notice the direction of the slash at the end.

127.123.1.1/admin

• If you have entered the IP address correctly, the following dialog box should appear. Enter the username and password as follows.

username:   admin

password:   admin    *** NB. Some service providers create a password specific to them. If this 'admin' password does not work, access the password from your service providers). Example, Lime's password is Adm1n@L1m3#
