well, that was easy.  I see what you mean about just calling it by the old network's name and password. Given it was specified on a tag on the router, I thought it would be more difficult to change, but it was simple.  I'm pulling down 400mbps on the other side of the house where I've never got over 50mbps at 2.4ghz and over 100mbps at 5ghz.  

 

I'm happy...hope it is rock solid.
