With the WPA/WPA2 set-up, does one's password need to be entered each time the radio is used?

We ended up returning the radio...it failed to hold settings and streaming was constantly interrupted.

I set mine up today and after 15 min or so of radio it says I need to connect again to internet...

No; the radio stores the password. I have had to re-enter once in the past year I had the radio.

You only have to enter your WPA Password once on initial set up. After that it is memorized and all you have to do is turn the radio on and off as you would any conventional radio. The Grace Wifi radio is a fantastic device cc

in any case I can think of, that is what it is supposed to do-it is a repeater and it will repeat the signal of any device it on your network and anyone else you let in and anyone else that guesses the password-use a good password

in my experience, i only had to input the wifi password once. every time after that, i can simply use the smart tv feature like netflix, amazon video without having to re-enter my wifi password. keep in mind that the tv does take some time to connect to your wireless so you won't be able to jump into the apps right after turning on the tv. that's the only minor quirk.

I have three set-up but I have each name differently and you have to log into these individually... Password is saved, but moving from Floor to floor, must manually switching to each NETGEAR...

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.

Yes it does. From the AirOS User Guide Page 19. Note: If you connect devices running in Station (WDS) mode to a device running in Access Point (WDS) mode, then all security methods (including WPA/WPA2 encryption) are available and work properly.

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

Mine does! I entered the password for my encrypted signal and the system did everything automatically. Best of all, I can SELECT either the hard-wired Ethernet or the Wi-Fi signal. The Ethernet is MUCH faster.

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.

Open up web browser while connected to the internet through router. Type in the address bar; 192.168.1.1 It will give you basic information about router. When clicking on wireless settings it will ask for user name and password. Default is as such; username: admin password: admin. Change settings to password protect. Most common type is wep2. Older systems such as early android or win xp work better with standard wep protection.

mine has always required a network password and you enter it into the crystal router on setup to allow entry into your network.

have you gone into setting and wifi and selected the wifi network you want to connect to with the appropriate password

It just boosts the signal. It has nothing to do with passwords. That's handled by your computer.

Yes, you can do this, if you are within range of Wifi or someone with internet service that will give you their password to log on too. I live in RV parks, and other places, and without my antenna, I wouldn't have service. At this very moment, I am running off the office secure system, but they gave me the password. This antenna is very simple to use. It does come with a dvd disc that you have to download for the app. It is compatiable with windows 7 or 8.

1. Yes, you can (and should) password protect your connection. This router offers WPA/WPA2 encryption, which is what you should use, NOT WEP encryption - WEP is completely insecure these days. This router also offers MAC address filtering, which allows you to select (by MAC address) what wireless devices are (or are not) allowed on your network. You can set one password to protect your WPA/WPA2 encrypted wireless, and that's really all you need. Just make sure it's not a weak password (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols, the more characters the better), and it will be uncrackable for all intents and purposes. 2. Theoretically, most wireless devices can support up to 255 devices, but that's completely impractical. Average home use shouldn't be a problem though, I'd be more concerned with making sure your internet connection is fast enough for all the devices to share. 3. I haven't noticed that yet. Technically, anything that operates on the 2.4Ghz range (cordless phones, microwaves) can interfere, and large metal items (ie, filing cabinets) can interfere with any wireless signal though. Wireless-N has a very good range though. At my workplace, we use G, and have almost 10 WAPs to provide coverage throughout the whole building. While working on a laptop with a wireless-N card, I noticed that it picked up most of the access points, as well as a couple of signals from outside the building! Hope that helps, I'll be happy to answer any more questions.

There's 4 different encryption settings. You pick the level of security you want. Create a pass code as hard or simple as you wish. Since this is dual band, you can opt to allow acces to either band. I found all the setup to be very easy. For one time users/guests there's a button to push on the router that allows access without the passcode.

You have to configure the WiFi from the settings and enter your access code if you have security.
