# Protect Your Home Wi-Fi Network

If you think your Home Wi-Fi is secure out of the box, then you are wrong. There are some necessary things to be done once you have decided to set up a home Wi-Fi connection to make it non accessible to the hackers.    

Firstly, make sure that the network password is well secured such that it is not very easy to be guessed.  Then change the default settings on the router that is a default administrator password. Most if times, these passwords will be the same so changing the password soon will be great option.
