Access and customize your wireless home network
By default, your ZTE H268A Home Gateway features two preconfigured home Wi-FiTM networks (one uses 2.4GHz frequency and the other uses 5GHz). Your home Wi-Fi network name (WLAN SSID) and password (WLAN Security) for each network are printed on a sticker located on the back of your home gateway.
