Installing the Arlo 2 and the wifi is open - so there is no router name or password.  how does one enter the wifi to make a connection?

The base station wifi is in fact closed - and you'll find you can't connect to it.

 

That's on purpose.  The cameras connect to the base, and the base passes on the camera streams to your network over ethernet.
