Wifi ม นข นเมน enter the network security key เพราะอะไร

If you're new to setting up or troubleshooting your Wi-Fi connection, you might be wondering what a network security key is. Luckily, it's not as confusing as it sounds — your network security key is essentially just your Wi-Fi password.

Of course, it's not actually that simple — if it were, we wouldn't need another word for it. A network security key is a specific type of password that allows your Wi-Fi router to talk to the device you're using, and allows you to use the internet securely.

What to know about network security keys

Network security keys have become more sophisticated over time, and there are now a few different kinds that work a few different ways. Knowing what kind of network key your router uses can be important for setting it up and solving issues.

There are three common types of network security keys.

How to find your network security key

Depending on which security key you go with, your password might be located in a couple different places — most of the time, default WEP keys can be found on a piece of paper given to you by the network owner with the router. Default WPA/WPA2 keys are usually printed somewhere on the side of your router, often on a sticker.

While setting up your router, you should create a new password so that you can remember it more easily. You can also go in and change your Wi-Fi password at any time.

If you've forgotten your Wi-Fi password, it's not the end of the world. As long as your computer is already connected to the router, you can pull the password up that way instead — this works on a Mac or on a PC. You can also share access with others across Apple devices, whether you're using a Mac or an iPhone.

How to create a strong password

Network security keys are an important part of keeping your network protected — and in a world where we do most of our business online, that protection is more important than ever.

Making sure you select the highest security network you can is part of that, but another part is selecting a good password. Experts say that a strong password has as many of the following qualities as possible:

  • Is 12 characters or longer (the longer the better)
  • Uses a mix of numbers, letters, and symbols
  • Doesn't use common substitutions (like zero for "O," $ for "S," et cetera)
  • Doesn't use an easy keyboard path (like "asdfjkl," "qwerty," or 123456) Picking a proper password is incredibly important. Thomas Trutschel/Getty Images

One of the most highly recommended ways to create a secure password is to make it a random combination of words that one might not usually find together, or else a simple sentence. For example, security experts would likely say that "PeanutButterManPants" and "PutThatDownJordan" are both strong passwords. Add some numbers or symbols and you have one of the best possible defenses against hackers.
