06:00
Speaker 2
To do so is change or rename that 2.4 and then press apply. Mhm. Yes, sir. rest assured that you can still or you can uh sorry, customize the Wi-Fi password, however I would recommend using the same password for both bands, okay, for less confusion. You can actually rename the 5G band if you want, sir. So either of the bands rest assured that you can rename them. Uh you you yeah, so on the Wi-Fi settings tab, you may simply like on the SSID or Wi-Fi name field. You may simply enter right away your Mhm.
06:00
Speaker 1
It's doing password oh, Wi-Fi setting. Okay, so I can go in and change the name of the 2.4. Okay, perfect. So let me see what this I'm just sorry, it's going to take me a few here. I just want to make sure I set it up the way it was. Okay. And I don't change any of the other settings, right? Just the name and the password? Okay. Okay.
07:00
Speaker 2
Yeah, Wi-Fi settings. Yes, sir. And yeah, same goes for the password or either of the bands, you can separate either of the bands by changing their names. No worries, sir. You may simply take your time and just let me know once you have done customizing the Wi-Fi settings. Yes, sir. That's correct. There's no need to change other settings on this router. Hmm.
07:00
Speaker 1
once I'm done, just hit apply. okay you're updating your Wi-Fi. disconnect all devices, including this one from the router. and then okay.
08:00
Speaker 2
Yes sir. Hit apply and press. Yes, or continue. Yes sir, that's actually, yeah, that's actually normal since uuh you're changing the Wi-Fi name and password. However, rest assured that you can just reconnect to the either of the networks using the new Wi-Fi password.
08:00
Speaker 1
applying changes, okay. and then I want to set the gas network back up, so I think I just have to go to that box and open in and activate it, right? Yeah. Okay. Um, do I just hit okay now? It stopped doing whatever it was doing.

Regarding with the router password, rest assured that you can just always reset it anytime, okay? Uh, however, again, rest assured that resetting the password will not disconnect your network, sorry, your device from the network. So yes. You can, so is there, no worries there. Just. Yes. Mhm. Understood. Got it. Just take your time. Yes, that's normal since um we will be getting that error message if your device or like your computer isn't connected to the network.
