Advice:

• Use strong encryption protocols, preferably WPA3 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 3), if your router supports it. If WPA3 is not available, use WPA2. Avoid outdated protocols like WEP, as they are easily compromised.
• Explanation: WPA3 provides stronger security features, including better encryption and protection against brute-force attacks. Using strong passwords that consist of at least 12-16 characters, including upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and special symbols, adds an additional layer of security.

Guideline:

• Change the default SSID (Service Set Identifier) and password of your router to something unique that does not disclose any identifying information about you or your network.

Implementation Steps:

• Access your router's settings through its IP address (usually something like 192.168.0.1) via a web browser.
• Log in with the default credentials (change these as well if you haven't already).
• Update the SSID to something non-identifiable (e.g., avoid using your name) and change the password to a strong, unique passphrase.
• Regularly reboot the router and consider checking for firmware updates to patch any vulnerabilities.
