The Netgear SPH101 will remember the password for your access point after you initially enter it and successfully connect to your home network. You will also have an option of auto logging into your Skype account or have the phone prompt you for a Skype username and password.

I am sure someone with enough savvy could hack into the system. However, since it uses wifi from a home, it would be advisable to make sure you have a secure wifi network to set up on. I know I had no problems when I travelled as I secure all my phones and devices. I would advise to check on the internet to see if any issues have been reported for this particular device.

I have the same problem..I have to re-enter the wi-fi password each time I start the computer. Not sure why everyone else's computer remembers the pw, and mine won't. Let me know if you found a fix.

The "password" is the "key" in the WiFi settings in the camera. Read through the full online manual at http://manual3.jvckenwood.com around page 31.

Yes, as each hot spot has it's own name and.password.. Just like hot spot on your smartphone too . Ps. We have two in our house one in bedroom and another in living room. Which we haven't experienced any issues having two hot spots in our house.

Go to the settings mode and go to join networks & click yes. If it ask for a password put it in

Does the Boom see your WiFi?Is the router using G mode (this can be turned off in the router utilizing only the N band)?What WiFi encryption type are you using?Will Boom connect if you temporarily turn OFF encryption?

Have you ever tried this? I heard that ATT will force you to buy a data package because it's a smartphone, and even you have data service you still can't connect to a secured WIFI though you have the password. Is it true? who can tell?

There is no default security key. You create the security key during the initial setup process once you've logged into the router. See pages 4-6 of the Quick Start Guide that should have been included with your router.

No it's not required but we had one from our cable supplier. You simply go to Netgears website and they instruct you how to change the password etc. The website is not very clear however but doable.

Thanks Mike, will have to wait for an official details from Netgear website, on the Netgear website only shows: What about security? Skype uses secure and encrypted communication so nobody's able to listen in. The NETGEAR Skype WiFi Phone is designed to deploy Wireless Encryption Protocol (WEP) for WiFi security. What wireless standard is used? The wireless mobile phone is WiFi compatible 802.11g, and is backwards compatible with 802.11b.

I am currently using a Netgear NR3500 router and the only time I have had problems is when I mess with my router.NETWORK CHALLENGED HERE.I put my router to default and I have no problems.The only thing I do with that router is change my password.I have been able to watch all the stuff I recorded on my computer, access Netflix and You-Tube with no problems. The only thing I have a problem with is thumbnails.I do not always see a picture in the thumbnails. Well I have only seen 3 thumbnail pictures and the rest are thumbnails that resemble a film strip (pictures and video). I have not figured out how to get a picture in the thumbnail yet.

No it doesn't so some things will look a bit purpley. A note about security. A feature the new firmware is supposed to provide is to lock out Internet access if someone tries the wrong password 3 times I think. That's a nice feature to add to the firmware.

During the setup you will either input the router password manually, or us WPS and it will aurtomatically sync with the routers WiFi. Once it is connected to the router it will by default have the same password as the routers WiFi.

It will only require your password if it is a locked network. You may want to check out your router to see if that is secured.

this router is like all others. if you set up the wifi with WPA2, you will not have issues with anyone using your wifi. remember to change the admin password of your router also.
