Have you ever forgotten your WiFi password? Or have you ever needed to change your WiFi password for some other reason? In such situations, people often have to search the internet for how to change their WiFi password. Let's solve this puzzle once and for all and explain how to change your WiFi.

Check the Router
If you've never changed your WiFi password, it means your WiFi is still using the default password. In this case, check your WiFi router. The default SSID and password on it are your current password, and you can continue using them if you wish.

Change the password from the router's web interface
To change your WiFi password, you need to go to the router's web interface. To do this, open the router's IP address in your browser. To do this, you can search for 192.168.1.1, 192.168.0.1, or 192.168.1.254 in your browser.

Next, log in to your WiFi router's web interface. The default credentials for a WiFi router's web interface are often admin, and the password is admin.
Next, view the password in Wireless / Wi-Fi settings → Security → WPA2/WPA3 and set a new password.

Factory Reset
If you can't change the password, you can also reset the WiFi router. Each router has a small "Reset" button on the back. This button may appear as a button or a hole. To reset the WiFi router, press and hold the reset button for 10–15 seconds with a pin. The router will reboot, and all settings will return to their defaults. After this, you will be able to connect to WiFi using the Default SSID/Password written on the back of the router. In this way, you can change your WiFi password or reset the WiFi router itself.
