Creating a unique password is an important step in securing your home network. This article will show you two ways you can change your WiFi password:

2. from your secure modem settings, which you can access on a computer or other connected device

Note that you may also want to customize your network name (SSID) to make it easy to recognize.

Password tips

If you are prompted to choose 64 bits or 128 bits, follow these guidelines:

• 64 bits: Enter 10 characters*

• 128 bits: Enter 26 characters*
  * Characters can only contain letters between A-F and numbers between 0-9 with no spaces.

In all other cases, your custom password must:

• Be between 8 and 63 characters long

• Contain at least one number from 0 to 9

• Contain at least one letter from A to Z
  Note: The space character can be used (but is not required)

Helpful hint: If you lose or forget your password, you can always log back in to the Wireless Security menu and choose “Use Default” for the password. This will change it back to the original one printed on the modem sticker.
