Password
Is the password I need to complete set up of my new Netgear wifi router modem found on the bottom of it a series of lower case letters and 3 numbers? If so, do I need to capitalize the letters?
There's no definite length of characters for the wireless password.
You may also verify the wireless password by accessing the admin page of the router.
How do I view or change the wireless network name (SSID) on my NETGEAR router?

The password on the bottom of my N450 wireless modem router modem is only 16 characters long. I thought these passwords were always 32 characters. Am I mistaken, or is the 16 characters length correct?
