Connecting Devices to the Updated WiFi Network:

Update WiFi Password on Devices:

  • Go to each device’s WiFi settings, usually in the settings menu.
  • Look for your WiFi network name (SSID) and choose to forget or remove it.
  • Then, reconnect to the WiFi by selecting it again and entering the new password.

     

Reconnect Devices to the Network:

    • If any device doesn’t reconnect, go to its WiFi settings, choose your updated network, and enter the new password manually.

       

Check Connectivity:

Tips for a Strong WiFi Password:

Introduction: Keeping your WiFi password strong is crucial for keeping your network safe. Here are easy tips to make a strong WiFi password:

Mix Letters, Numbers, and Symbols:

• • Use a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols like !, @, #, $, %, etc. This makes your password harder to guess. For example, “P@ssw0rd!2024” is strong.

     

Avoid Common Words or Phrases:
