How to Change SKY Broadband WIFI Name and Password

Are you having issues connecting to the internet?

Slow internet or no connection at all can be caused by a software issue such as a virus infection or a conflict between the apps on your computer.

If there’s an issue with your Internet Service Provider (ISP), that can also cause an issue on your internet connection that’s why you sometimes end up calling your ISP for technical assistance.

In some cases, slow internet connection can happen when a number of devices are connected to the same WIFI.

So, how do you know if there are many devices connected to your WIFI?

There are two ways to check your router’s settings.

      1. If you’re still connected to the WIFI, you may access the settings wirelessly or through the WIFI.
      2. If you’re not connected to the WIFI anymore, you may access your router settings by connecting the ethernet cable from the router to your computer or laptop.

How to Access the Router’s Settings

If your internet connection is slow but you’re still able to connect to your WIFI, you may access the settings by following these steps.

Step 1 – In the search bar on your computer, type CMD and hit enter to access the Command Prompt.
