Network security experts teach you how to set up the most secure WiFi password in history

By setting a strong password, you can prevent WiFi from being hacked and ensure WiFi network security. So how can we set our WiFi password to be the safest?

The following setting suggestions are provided:

1. When setting the WiFi password, try to use a password composed of letters, numbers and characters. This kind of password is strong and difficult to crack. More combinations provide more possibilities, which increases the difficulty of password cracking. It is recommended to increase the number of characters and complexity of the password, and the password should be at least 8 characters, and change it every once in a while.

2. When setting the wifi password on the router, it is recommended to use the newer WPA2-PSK security mode, otherwise the old wep encryption method can be cracked in a few minutes using professional software. Most of today's routers support WPA2. If the router does not support it, it is recommended to replace it with a router that supports WPA2.

3. Protect the router to prevent hackers from changing the settings. It is recommended to set a separate password for the router, which should be different from the WiFi password. Because new routers usually do not have passwords, or only have simple default passwords, many hackers already know this password. For example, the default passwords are admin, 123456, which must be changed.

The safest method: bind the Mac address and turn off DHCP so that others cannot get an IP address even if they connect to your router. Turn off SSID broadcast so that others cannot see your network. This is the safest way to do it once and for all.
