<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nIf you own a wireless router at home, you may want to know how to configure the settings on your router in order to make it more secure. This is important because if someone has access to your wifi, they could gain access to your internet and start downloading things without your permission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To check your security settings, go into your wireless settings and find the Security tab. You\u2019ll be able to find information about MAC Address Filtering, WiFi Protected Access (WPA), and Encryption. The first thing you should do is change the default SSID name of your network from something very easy like ‘Home Wireless’ or ‘Home Network’.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This will make it harder for people to hack into your wireless network. Next up, we’ll talk about MAC Addresses. MAC Address Filtering is a way for you to prevent devices from connecting with yours that are not on an approved list. The problem with this is that many sites have their own list of approved devices, so some might get through while others won\u2019t even though they meet the filtering criteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another option is WiFi Protected Access (WPA) which encrypts data between devices and routers so they can only be accessed by those who know the password or keys. And finally there’s encryption which creates a secure connection between two points on a network – in other words, between your computer and the wireless router – so that any data that passes through these two points cannot be seen by anyone else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How do I set my router to WPA3 personal?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nWPA3 Personal is a more secure wireless security system than WPA2 Personal. With WPA3, you can set your router to use AES-GCM (encryption) by inputting that security system into the “Security” section of the router’s settings page. You will also want to enable the password field when setting up your router to ensure that only you and people with your password are able to access your network and change settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How do I change my Linksys router settings?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThere are different ways to change your Linksys router settings. One way is to use their software and another way is to manually configure the settings on the router itself. I don\u2019t recommend you change your Linksys router settings manually, as it can be very complicated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But if you\u2019re looking for a more detailed explanation of how to do it, there are plenty of tutorials on YouTube or other websites that may be able to help you out. The simplest way to do this is by using their software, which you can find on the website or download it right onto your computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once in their software, click on \u201cWireless\u201d then \u201cBasic Wireless Settings\u201d and then follow the instructions to change your wireless settings. You may need a password in order to access the setting and some models will require an advanced configuration before they work properly. This is why we recommend that you use their software instead of changing your settings manually on the router.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How do I access my Linksys router settings?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nIf you want to make your home or small business network more secure, the best way to do so is by configuring your router settings. You can find your Linksys router\u2019s configuration page by looking at the label on your modem and then typing in your browser\u2019s address bar \u201c192.168.1.1\u201d which will bring you to a login screen for your router.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
