Accuracy and completeness

Router interfaces differ between brands, between models from the same brand, and between firmware versions on the same model. A menu described here as "Wireless Security" may be labelled something else on your device, or sit under a different parent menu.

We check guidance against publicly documented behaviour and update it when we learn it is wrong, but we cannot guarantee that every step matches your hardware.

Changing router settings carries risk

Changing LAN addressing, DHCP ranges, DNS servers or firmware can interrupt your internet connection, disconnect devices or, in the case of an interrupted firmware update, leave equipment unusable.

• Note your current settings before you change them.
• Change one thing at a time so you can tell what caused a problem.
• Never power off a router during a firmware update.
• If the equipment belongs to your internet provider, check whether changing it breaches your service agreement.

You make these changes at your own risk. legal entity name — to be supplied accepts no liability for loss of connectivity, loss of data or damage to equipment.

Not professional advice

Nothing here is legal, security or professional network-engineering advice. For a business network, regulated environment or anything carrying real consequences, engage a qualified professional.

Security caution

We will never ask you to enter a router username or password into this website, and no legitimate guide would. Type credentials only into the admin page served by your own router at 192.168.0.1 on your own network — see how to open the 192.168.0.1 login page.
