1. Swipe down with your finger to open the dashboard of the camera.
2. Then select the "Settings" and click on "Connections".
3. After that, tap on the "Reset Connections" option. The name and password will now be recreated by the camera.
4. This procedure also works for the HERO 7 Black, Silver and White Editions.
