How do I know who’s connected to my wifi?

How do I change the wireless settings on my 2Wire gateway?
You’d simply open your web browser and enter the gateway’s default IP address: 192.168.1.254. Then click Settings, LAN, and Wireless. See an example of the wireless settings below.

Can I use my 2Wire router without internet?
You can access the 2Wire router’s settings even without a working Internet connection. The default login credentials only works if you haven’t changed the username and password yet. If you already did, use the credentials you’ve set to access the 2Wire router.
How secure is the 2Wire gateway?
Unlike a normal wireless router or gateway you might buy from a store, the 2Wire Gateway comes with Wi-Fi security already enabled for you. Your neighbors won’t be able to connect to or eavesdrop on your network via Wi-Fi. The gateway comes with Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA or WPA2) PSK encryption enabled.
