How to Change WiFi Network Name and Password
Changing your WiFi network name and password can help improve the security of your home network. Follow these steps to change your WiFi network details:
- Open a web browser on a device connected to your WiFi network.
- Enter your router's IP address in the browser's address bar. (Common addresses are 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1)
- Enter your router's username and password. (If you haven't changed them, the default credentials are often 'admin' for both)
- Find the 'Wireless' or 'WiFi' settings in the router's interface.
- You can now change your WiFi network name (SSID) and password. Make sure to use a strong password containing a mix of letters, numbers, and special characters.
- Save your changes and reconnect your devices using the new WiFi network name and password.
Remember to keep your WiFi network secure by changing your password regularly and using WPA2 or WPA3 encryption.
