Change Wi-Fi Network Names and Passwords
The Main and Guest Wi-Fi network names identify your Wi-Fi networks and are visible to other
Wi-Fi-enabled devices.
You can change the names and passwords for your Main and Guest Wi-Fi networks on the
Mingle Manager’s Wi-Fi > Options page.
For optimal security, you should make your Wi-Fi network names and passwords unique, and
change them on a regular basis.
Note: If you change either of the Wi-Fi network names or passwords, all connected devices will
be disconnected and will have to reconnect using the new values.
Note: For security reasons, it’s recommended you disable SSID Broadcast. (See Options Tab.)
