How to Change the Password 🔐 of Your WiFi Router

Changing your WiFi password is a smart way to keep your internet connection secure. Whether you're protecting against unwanted users or simply updating your network, here’s how you can easily change your WiFi password using your router’s settings.

🛠️ Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Connect to your WiFi network using a laptop or phone.
Step 2: Open any browser and type https://192.168.1.1/ in the address bar.
Step 3: You’ll be prompted to log in. Use the default credentials:
Username: admin
Password: admin
(If these don’t work, check the back of your router or contact your ISP.)
Step 4: Once logged in, find the option that says "Wireless" or "Wireless Settings".
Step 5: Locate the field labeled "Password", "Passphrase", or "Pre-shared key".
Delete the old password and enter a new, strong one.
Step 6: Click "Save" or "Apply" to update the settings.
Your router may reboot. After rebooting, reconnect using the new password.

✅ Tips for a Strong WiFi Password

  • Use a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols
  • Avoid using your name or phone number
  • Update your password every few months

📌 Note:

If your router has a different IP (like 192.168.0.1), use that instead. You can find it by typing ipconfig in Command Prompt (Windows) or checking your network settings.

That’s it! You’ve now secured your WiFi network with a new password. 🔒
