Hi Peter, 1. Open AirPort Utility 2. Click on the AirPort Time Capsule icon 3. Click Edit in the smaller window that appears 4. Click the Wireless tab at the top of the next window that appears 5. Edit the Wireless Network Name to something that is simple, short, with no blank spaces or special characters 6. Change the Wireless Password to something different and Verify again tick Remember this password in my keychain 7. Click Update at the lower right of the window and wait a minute for the AirPort TC to restart Might be a good idea to write the details of new Wireless Network name & password and keep it in a safe place. - Wireless Routers in 1Password 5
All devices that connected to the previous Wi-Fi Network name will need to connect to the new Wi-Fi Network Name and type the new password and save the password to their keychain.
