Beginning in Fireware v12.5.3 and higher, wireless is enabled in the factory-default settings for a wireless-capable Firebox. This enables you to use a Wi-Fi connection to run the Setup Wizard when you set up the Firebox.

To connect to a Firebox with factory-default settings, use these default Wi-Fi settings:

• SSID — The Firebox model plus the last part of the wireless MAC address. For example: T55-W-A1:B2:C3
• Password — The Firebox serial number (including the dash). The Wi-Fi password is case-sensitive.

In addition, these settings are enabled by default:

• 2.4 GHz radio enabled
• ath1 wireless interface enabled and bridged to the Firebox Trusted interface
• Wireless Mode — 802.11n, 802.11g and 802.11b
• Encryption (Authentication) — WPA2 Only (PSK)
• Encryption algorithm — AES

To run the Setup Wizard on the Firebox after you have connected through the wireless connection, open your web browser and go to https://10.0.1.1:8080.
