Your Wireless Network Name is the name of the wireless connection being sent out by your router. It’s what you should be looking out for when trying to connect to a wireless network from your computer or other wireless enabled device.
The Wireless Password is the wireless key that you will have to type in when trying to connect to your wireless network. You’ll be prompted to enter it when you first try to connect. This is here to stop any unwelcome guests from accessing your network.
If you have a TalkTalk router you should find a sticker attached displaying your Wireless Network Name and Password. It’ll look something like the one below:
Please note: these instructions will only work if you have a TalkTalk router. If you have a router from a different supplier, please check with the manufacturer for further help and support.
If you can’t find this sticker or you have already changed your details, then you can find or change your Wireless Password by accessing your router online. Please follow the steps below.
Access your router
1. On your computer or tablet open a web browser (Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, etc.), type 192.168.1.1 into the address bar and press Enter just like opening a website.

2. Enter admin as the username, and admin as the password (unless you have changed these, in which case use your own login details)
Note: For the HG633 Super Router the default username is admin and the password you'll find on the sticker on the back of the router (both are case-sensitive)
Depending on the type of router you have, you'll see one of the screens below. Please select which screen you see for a step-by-step guide for your type of router.
