 * Open your config.h file in your editor (like the Arduino IDE)
 * Uncomment the line ``"#define ENABLE_ETHERNET = true"`` by removing the "//" characters
 * Add "//" comment lines in front of ``"#define ENABLE_WIFI = true"`` (if it isn't already commented out).
-* Enter the SSID for your router by replacing "Your network name" with the name of your network in ``#define WIFI_SSID "Your network name"`` in between the quotes.
-* Enter the Password for your router by replacing "Your network passwd" with your password in the line:``#define WIFI_PASSWORD "Your network passwd"`` in between the quotes.
