Dont forget to turn off UPnP. Its a convience setting...and exploit for hackers. Turn it back on when you want to setup a new device.

[@SteveDOES]

Great advice!

[@dankelley9361]

Great coverage in helping to secure your router & its network. Be careful changing your routers SSID & password as you will need to change those wireless devices that used to hookup wirelessly to the new SSID & password changes.

[@DavideMazzetti]

And that's a major pain in the proverbials lol.

Great video for people who want to learn the basics of secureing their network. Thumbs up!!

[@jonathanlara9740]

Great channel, Can you make video of a little more advanced methods that securing a home network. Adding a VPN router that protects all devices through that router, etc etc😊

[@user-code404]

AMAZING VIDEO!!! I am so much thankful. Great work. Looking forward to learn a lot from you.

7:36 pass phrases are easy to crack as well, with modern hardware. best option is to random password and use qr code to login.

3:45 but if they need to forward?

[@joshuamendoza4745]

Came here to see if anyone asked this. Seems like if you're taking me not to port forward, you should tell me a workaround. But AFAIK, there's no way around it.

[@trp225]

@@joshuamendoza4745 there seems to be a way. A VPN/Tunnel. However, be sure not to forward ports in your NAT router when using a VPN provider - only forward from the VPN provider.

Asus was reccomending Port Forwarding if u are utalizing AiMeshNetwork Features What are your thoughts on that?

[@trp225]

9:13 expect if you are running server. If they can connect to you, it does not matter if you reply to ping or not.

[@WhyBecause.]

It would be great if I was able to even find most of these settings for my router. The config interface is ridiculous for mine.

[@IncaDink]

So important. Thank you for sharing

Am I able to buy a hardware firewall? As a beginner I would love to have my internet secure from hackers! Is Ubuntu and Linux worth learning ? I currently hate windows but play all the games an average person plays anyway do I need to learn pfsense? Can someone give me an idea what to look up please ? Do I need to start my first server ? Do I need virtual machine knowledge I'm confused I recently lived with a guy that knew about all of this and he has been changing my information on my accounts since I left my PC at his house what should I do? Please give me some insight on how to fight this hacker

[@michaelthomson9461]

Updating orbi firmware is taking life and network in own hands, literally every time it does few update I need to hard factory reset, total nightmare.

Like the computer getting warmer, application are failing , numbers are getting changed ! Do you have any suggestions for this ?

[@rendezvu175]

You should also lower the transmission power of your wifi so it doesn't broadcast too far outside of your home. Doing so will lower your transmission speed, but you won't notice unless you OCD.

[@dankelley9361]

Always watch your videos. You recently did a short on Echo Automations with link in Bio. How do I get there to see these automations? Thanks

[@trp225]

5:06 Not all NAT routers allow changing the user name.

[@LiminalPhate]

Could be someone using Wi-Fi Marauder under sniff, using PM kid. They get the pcaps and or log files from there and run it through hashcat or Wireshark... I think. I don't do that, But I do deauthorize the evil dope dealing neighbor.😂

[@msotrfan1]

Me too! I changed my SSID name to UpStairsNeighborsKeepJamminMyShit to let them know I know what they're doing. They are still able to hack in and I don't know how they are doing it. Have you found out any way to get around that?

[@kawaiisenshi2401]

Can you redo this video with a At&T modem?

[@ahmadfathaldin]

Hey Steve and greetings from Saudi Arabia! 👋 Awesome videos in the channel and this Playlist. Could you make a video about frequncies? i.e. 5 hz and 2.4 hz and the reason why most smart devices like light switches use 2.4 hz And why android phones dont show 2.4 in the available network list ? I mean every time i want to setup a new device that requires tuya or smart life i go through a huge process of apps and steps that i eventually forget and have to re-learn with every new device, was it a mistake that i named both frequencies with the same name? I am going to delete and make a new home network any tips on naming and setup strategies to make the 2.4 and 5 hz issue "less inconvenient "? Hope the comment wasn't too long 😅

[@ahmadfathaldin]

By "apps" i mean i have to use an app called wifi analyzer to connect the phone to the 2.4 network to setup a smart life or tuya device ....most of the time i dont even know whats going on and just wing it till it works😂

Hey thanks.

I can't keep hackers out of my wifi someone was watching and listening to me when I step out the front door it says paused I have found bugs attached to a dish network box I don't have dish network pls help

[@Ignotus2023]

Reset your whole computer. Or get a new one and do not sign into any of your accounts until you change passwords on all of them. Maybe this can help.

I can’t do the first step cuz my connection is not secure enough.

The best way to learn and understand how to secure your home network is to learn how to hack your own network

Go wired and forget wireless. Wireless is too vulnerable even in air gapped networks.
