I was thinking more along the lines of those worried about getting locked out of their own router. Easier to explain to the authorities who was using your wifi at that time though if they do come knocking 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empty It Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Should've just given the neighbour the wrong password and if he come back insist the password is correct. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICTChris Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Took my son to swimming lessons today at 8am. On the way in passed at least four guys drinking cans on the street, shouting and roaring at each other. On the way out some shambling mad looking guy had a giant pitbull off the lead right outside the pool meaning we had to walk round the block to avoid him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are generally two independent passwords associated with a wireless router: the router admin password, and the WiFi network password. Without the former, which should be very difficult to crack, it isn't possible to do anything other than as a client device of the WiFi network. But it's another example of how the bad people (would-be freeloading neighbours) push the bad feelings resulting from their badness onto the blameless people*. "I have this selfish, outrageous imposition! You accommodate me now, or feel terrible for being unhelpful!" * disclaimer: I have never met superwell87, so I'm just assuming blamelessness here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my setup, I don't actually know the admin password - the ISP tech set it up and it's not the default one shown in the info. sheet. Regardless, I am able to change the WiFi password whenever I like as would anyone else who has the WiFi password. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually just a bunch of letters and numbers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My router has a separate username and password for both admin and user logins. If I wanted to go into the router settings menu I'd need to log into the admin ID to do that. There is a router ID as you describe on the back. In all honesty, I may be talking bollocks now as I've not tried to do anything with the router and password for yonks. We got a new router a couple of years back and the installer set it up and I gave him the old WiFi password to use with the new router. I might take a look at how to change password. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
