So now would be a good time to consider switching to a more secure WiFi password, but I just wanted to let you know in case you're not aware that the password on the ISP router can be changed.
If you set your new Bell router to the same SSID and password as the old Shaw one your devices will not need to be touched and will connect as if nothing happened.
So one of my issues is I changed the PW and can't remember what I changed it to LoL. Every damned PW id ever consider isn't working.
Not a smrt move by yours truly.
Do you use an Android phone? If so you can get the PW out of the WiFi settings. Other OSs have that capability as well, check and see if that's an option.
I do have an android....any help linking me to how to do this? Not so experienced on this side of things.
Thanks!
Go to Settings > Network & internet > Internet, select the saved network and press the gear icon, and then click on the Share button. This will display a QR code and the password in plain text.
On Samsung Galaxy devices, you cannot see the password in plain text. However, you can access the QR code, which can easily be read through the camera app or a QR code scanner app. Go to Settings > Connections > Wi-Fi, select the saved network and press the gear icon, and then click on the Share button. This will display a QR code.
The number of times I've scanned QR codes screenshotted from the same device. So annoying. So "secure".
