How to Access Your Wi-Fi Router’s Settings

How to access your Wi-Fi router’s settings is one of the questions many an internet user asks after setting up their new wireless device, start by going to 192.168.0.1 loginadmin.net. Setting up a mobile wireless connection has become as common as setting up a home broadband connection. The same steps involved – choosing the frequency, channel and security settings – apply to a Wi-Fi router too. Just like a wired connection, the Wi-Fi router’s settings are controlled by a software program called the SSID on your computer or Smartphone. The SSID (stand for Service Station Identification) is what will give you your Internet connection’s Internet Protocol address.

With that address, your computer or smartphone is able to connect to the network you’re connected to. In order to find this out, there are two ways you can do it. You can either search for your SSID by pressing Ctrl + Z and searching for it on the list that appears on your Internet browser. Alternatively, you can connect your browser to a computer somewhere on the same network (on a public Wi-Fi network for example) and copy down the SSID from the address bar on your smart phone; then use your web browser to access the Internet through that computer.

If you’re wondering how this data gets to your computer, it’s quite simple. Your Wi-Fi router automatically connects every time you connect to the network. It sends the SSID itself, along with some basic information about your computer to your computer over the airwaves. By default, your computer will only know how to respond to these signals; but in case you’ve set up your device to automatically connect whenever you’re near a hotspot or if it has GPS capabilities, you’ll get more detailed information.

Knowing how to access your wi-fi router’s settings is all well and good, but if you want to change anything, what do you do? You could look at the SSID of your device – the one which shows on the box when you take it out of its packaging – and change it, of course. But this won’t tell you anything about your actual network’s configuration. You could also try to physically alter your router’s settings, but doing so will permanently damage your device. And even if you can reset the settings back to their defaults by pressing your Wi-Fi adapter’s WPS button, what good will that do if you later forget how to access your Wi-Fi router’s settings again?

The answer to this is to use a software tool called WAP Shot. This software will bypass your computer’s security protection and go directly into your Wi-Fi router’s settings. How it does this is by “parsing” the security settings that your computer initially has – before you’ve even connected to the Internet. You see, most anti-virus programs have a habit of scanning every file that you download or install… but they don’t scan the files that you connect to, like your Wi-Fi router’s settings. So when you connect, your anti-virus scans the entire Internet for any viruses that might be lurking within your PC. And that’s what WAP Shot does.

It then “shadows” those security settings so that your computer thinks they’re actually safe after you’ve downloaded and installed the software. It’s a great way to access your wi-fi router’s settings, but as a word of caution, you should only use WAP Shot on a tested and signed software program. (HTTroy recently released a virus-resistant version of WAP Shot which you can find at the link below.) Also, make sure that you’ve got the latest version of Java installed on your system.

If you’re wondering how to access your Wi-Fi router’s settings, the answer is simple: you just click on the icon for the specific software that you want to update. For example, if you’re updating your software from Chase Bank, you’ll click on Chase Bank icon on the browser and you’ll see several options for updating your software. You’ll also see a section where you can choose to update the definitions file. Once you’ve done that, you can begin scanning your computer to make sure that your computer isn’t infected with a hidden virus.

Hopefully this article has been helpful in showing you how to access your wi-fi router’s settings. Most of the time, you just need to know that you can change your settings from the software itself. Sometimes, though, you’ll need to use a third-party program to do this. Keep in mind that these steps are only necessary if you’re going to keep on using your computer after your initial set up. For most people, changing their settings manually isn’t necessary. If you think that they are, however, then it’s worth learning how to access your Wi-Fi router’s settings from software instead.
