    How can I secure my Wi-Fi network from unauthorised users?

    Simply follow the steps below:

    • Set a strong Wi-Fi password: a user can easily change the default password into their own password, this is why it’s important to choose a unique, complex password with a mix of letters, numbers, symbols and avoid using personal information.
    • Use strong encryption: by default our modems come with WPA2 enabled. We recommend not downgrading to outdated options like WPA or worse.
    • Use a guest network: set up a separate guest network for visitors to isolate your main devices and data.
    • WPS disabled: WPS is convenient but vulnerable to brute-force attacks. It’s best to keep it turned off.
    • Monitor connected devices: it’s good practice to periodically check and manage the devices connected to your network.
