Decreased Internet speed in your home may indicate that your neighbors are using your Wi-Fi network. In a conversation with the radio about it Sputnik said telecommunications expert Vyacheslav Burkhaylo.
You need to check your home router’s web interface to find a possible traffic thief. To do this, go to the browser at the IP address of the device and enter the login and password specified on the router itself or in its box. Next, in the “connected devices” section, you need to check how many gadgets are using the Internet connection. Some modern routers have a mobile app that displays similar information.
You can protect yourself from unscrupulous neighbors with a complex password – when you change the password, all existing connections are reset.
“80% of Wi-Fi passwords are so simple, people don’t want to mess with it. This is convenient, but not secure: the password guesser will quickly guess a simple combination. Therefore, the password should be complex, consisting of lowercase and lowercase letters, numbers and preferably symbols,” says Burhailo.
