If you don't remember the administrator name and password, or if you're not sure, consult your router's manual for the default login values. Below are commonly used insecure defaults. Never leave your router's administrator name and password at their default values as they anyone can find them via an Internet search.
Always change these values when configuring your wireless router. At a minimum, change the password to a strong password you'll remember. If you cannot log into your router because you can't remember the login information, and the default username and password don't work, you can reset the router to factory defaults.
Every router's configuration interface is different. Below is an example of how a router's setup may appear. In your router's configuration interface, look for a section called Wireless , or something similar. You're looking for the page where you can change the wireless network's configuration, including its SSID name and authentication key. If you're unable to locate it, consult your router's manual for specific instructions.
When you find the wireless network configuration page, you can view the values and make changes. You can set the encryption key password in one of the text fields below this. Consult your manual if you're unable to locate the correct field. The encryption key is often displayed in plain text, so if you only need the current password, it should be visible on this page. At this time, change your SSID name, which is the name that appears in the list of available wireless networks.
If you make any changes to your router's configuration, make sure to save them. For instance, in the example pictured above, you'd click the Apply button.
Many modern wireless routers offer two wireless networks which broadcast at frequencies of 2. The configuration for each network may appear on separate pages. If you are using both networks, make sure they are both configured the way you want, and you know the password for each.
Consult your router's manual for more information regarding dual-band Wi-Fi configuration.
