How to change your Wi-Fi name and password
- Log in to your router: Open a web browser and type your router’s IP address, like 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.188.1. Use your username and password to log in.
- Go to Wi-Fi settings: Look for a section called “Wireless” or “Wi-Fi.” You’ll need to change both if your router has two networks (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz).
- Update the network name (SSID): Find the section labeled “SSID” or “Network Name.” Type the new Wi-Fi name you want. The new name will appear when connecting to the internet.
- Set a new password: Look for a box labeled “Wi-Fi Password,” “Passphrase,” or “Pre-Shared Key.” Enter a strong password that’s easy to remember but hard for others to guess. Avoid common passwords like “12345678” or “password.”
- Save the changes: Click “Save” or “Apply.” Your router might restart to update the settings.
Reconnect your devices to the updated Wi-Fi name and password after you finish.
Store the new password in a safe place to avoid forgetting it. Regularly updating your Wi-Fi password protects your internet from unauthorized use.
