The Fios Quantum Gateway is a Verizon router that allows consumers to distribute and transmit digital data and entertainment to connected devices at home or in the office. It is a robust and versatile router that supports fast networking through Ethernet cables or wirelessly through Wi-Fi. Also, this Verizon router is user-friendly and you can quickly set up your home network within a few minutes. The following is a detailed explanation of how to change the Wi-Fi password to address any connection-related problems.<\/p>\n

Importance of Changing the Wi-Fi Password<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The majority of Wi-Fi users at home are still using the default administrator password and network names. Also, many consumers even use the default Wi-Fi password and don\u2019t understand the importance of changing that detail. However, it is very critical to do all these things to secure your router and your connection to the internet. That is because hackers often use default router passwords to redirect your online traffic to their malicious websites, while some can even draft your devices into their botnet armies.<\/p>\n

If you want to ensure that your network will not be hijacked by anyone, it is critical to change the wi-fi password. Although your Fios Quantum router has a limited signal range, it likely extends outside your house and can even reach the neighbors or the street. A curious invader can easily access your unsecured network and use your connection for illegal or shady purposes. They could also introduce malware and viruses in your network, which will affect all devices and computers currently connected to it within your home.<\/p>\n

Ensure you use a more secure password that is harder for anyone to figure out. After applying the changes, ensure to reconnect all your Wi-Fi devices using the new network details.<\/p>\n

Verizon offers a range of tools that you can use to change the SSID (Wi-Fi name) and WEP\/WPA2 Key (password) credentials. Here are the main ways you can change your password:<\/p>\n

\n\u2022 My Verizon
\n\u2022 Router log in<\/p>\n

\u2022 Once you have connected to your Fios network open a browser
\n\u2022 Enter the following IP address: 192.168.1.1
\n\u2022 It will open the myfiosgateway login where you will need to fill in the router\u2019s username and password
\n\u2022 You can reset the router to default settings if you forgot the password
\n\u2022 You will find the default router admin details located on a sticker on the router and also in the user guide.
\n\u2022 Once you have entered the right credentials, you\u2019ll log into the router
