Wi-Fi Password Generator

Create a strong, random password for your Wi-Fi network. A good Wi-Fi password is the single most important barrier between your network and unauthorised access.

What Makes a Strong Wi-Fi Password?

A good Wi-Fi password needs to be long enough that brute-force attacks take impractically long, and random enough that dictionary attacks fail. WPA2 and WPA3 support passwords up to 63 characters. Here is what actually matters:

  • At least 12 characters, 16 or more is significantly better
  • Mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols
  • No recognisable words, names, or patterns
  • Not related to your address, phone number, or birthdate
  • Different from every other password you use
  • Stored in a password manager, not written on a sticky note

WPA3 makes brute-force attacks significantly harder than WPA2. If your router supports WPA3, enable it in the wireless security settings - even a somewhat shorter password is much more resistant to offline cracking attempts.

How to Change Your Wi-Fi Password

1
Generate a strong password

Use the generator above to create a Wi-Fi password with 16+ characters mixing letters, numbers, and symbols.

2
Log in to your router

Open your router admin panel at 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 and navigate to the Wireless or Wi-Fi settings section.

3
Enter the new password

Paste the generated password in the Wi-Fi Password or WPA Key field. Ensure WPA2 or WPA3 encryption is selected.

4
Save and reconnect devices

Save the settings. The router will disconnect all Wi-Fi devices. Reconnect each device with the new password.
