Wireless gateway settings - 2Wire 2700 6.1 Firmware

  • 2Wire 2700 setup

    Your TELUS wireless gateway will allow you the option of connecting devices wirelessly, creating your own wireless home network.

    For your security, your wireless gateway needs to be configured with a wireless network name (SSID) and a network security key. Please make sure to write this information down, as you will need to select your wireless network name and enter in your network security key every time you want to access your wireless home network.
