Is wireless security on by default? Yes, the default security setting uses 64-bit WEP encryption. The default WEP encryption key is printed on the label attached to the bottom of the Verizon 9100VM router. This provides security for your network as soon as you set up your home network.

Note: Please review the amount and type of sensitive information you have on your network. If 64-bit WEP encryption is not sufficient to protect this data, you should access the router's Management Console and update the security settings.
