How do I change the "name" of my wireless router as it shows up when looking for a network?
I have a 2Wire wireless router, and when I look for it on my laptop, it shows up as "2Wire868" Is there a way to personalize the name it's showing?

Enter the IP address of your router into your browser address bar.
Look for the Wireless Settings options. It should have an entry that says:
Wireless (or Network) Name: 2Wire868
You can change it there and update

Try logging into the router with this address:
http://192.168.0.1
You should need to enter a user name (probably "Admin") and a password. Now where would that be...
Find the wireless settings and change the SSID there.

you will need to search your instructions online to find out what your internal ip is, then type taht in in your web browser, but instance Belkin is 192.168.2.1 This is where u can change your settings
