In case the SpeedTouch™ has not been configured before (the SpeedTouch™ is still in
its default configuration), it is recommended to proceed first with the configuration
setup procedures as described in
“1.3 SpeedTouch™ Configuration Setup” on page 11

For enhanced security, after going through the SpeedTouch™ configuration setup
procedures, you are able to “personalize” the SpeedTouch™ wireless access point
settings by configuring another SSID, and/or optionally another security level.
For more information on the configuration of the SpeedTouch™ Wireless configura-
tion, see
