With many devices in modern homes and businesses that are compatible with WiFi networks, the ability to connect specific devices and prevent unauthorized access to the network becomes very important. If you’ve never set up a home or business WiFi network, then you probably think you’ll need an IT support technician to assist you. The simple answer is that you can do this yourself.
Setting Up The Router
A router is a device that routes an internet signal to multiple devices. Routers have a set number of physical devices that can be attached to them, but wireless devices are only limited by the number of IP addresses you specify in the set up process.
1. Depending on the type of router you own, your home address will be something along the lines of http://1.192.168.1. This is the default for Linksys routers, the most common router available to home and business users. If you have a different brand of router, check the documentation for your router. The default password for logging into this page is usually no username, and ‘admin’ as the password.
2. Navigate to Wireless settings. Here you want to set up your wireless security. There are several options to choose from, including WEP, WPA, and WPA 2. For a home and business network, you’ll want to pick WPA 2. WEP bis old technology that can be cracked easily.
3. Choose TKIP or AES so devices can connect no matter their frequency. Set your password to be something you can remember, but something that also contains numbers and letters in varying cases. When you connect devices to your network, you’ll need to enter this password.
4. Click save settings and the router will restart. You should now have a password protected wireless network that will require you to enter the password for any devices you want to connect to the network. If you still have problems setting up your secure network, there are numerous IT services that can help.
