With the development of the Internet, it becomes necessary to use devices that provide constant access to the World Wide Web. Recently, Wi-Fi routers have gained popularity, allowing you to create a home wireless network. However, often the user who connected this device to a laptop or tablet forgets the password from it, information about which may be urgently needed in the future. Therefore, it is important to know how you can remember the code from the Wi-Fi router.
Instructions
Step 1
As a rule, to recover a lost Wi-Fi password, you only need one connected computer to this network, in the lower right corner of which you should find the connection icon and click on it. Next, you need to select "Network and Sharing Center" and then a window will open in which it is advisable to select "Manage wireless networks" on the right. After completing the described combinations, another window will be displayed, where you should right-click on the existing connection, and then select "Properties".
Step 2
Further, by going to the "Security" tab, it is advisable to enter the "Network Security Key", where hidden characters will be displayed, meaning a forgotten password. In order to recognize it, you just need to put a tick next to the item "Show hidden icons". It should be noted that the recovered password for reliability should be written down on a piece of paper and put in a certain place.
Step 3
In the event that the control panel does not have an item "Manage wireless networks" on the computer, then you need to click on the special connection icon in the notification functions, after which a list of networks will open. After that, you need to right-click on the network to which the laptop or tablet is connected, and then select "Properties". Further, it is advisable to check the box next to the item "Display entered characters", after which the desired password from Wi-fi will be displayed.
Step 4
It is also possible to find the lost Wi-Fi password in the router settings. To do this, simply connect the router to your computer using the supplied network cable. After that, you need to connect this wireless device and enter the following address in the address bar of the browser: 192.168.1.1, then enter the login and password in order to access the settings. Next, you need to go to the "Wireless mode" - "Wireless security" tab. Parallel to the line "PSK Password" the access code to the Wi-Fi network will be displayed. It should be noted that on Asus routers, the password can be written directly on the main page.
