Generate a strong Wi-Fi password for your router in one click. These presets are designed to be secure and also easy to type on phones, TVs and game consoles.
Tip: if any device struggles to join your Wi-Fi, switch to the no-symbols option above and just increase length.
Best settings for Wi-Fi passwords
- Length: 16–24+ characters
- Characters: letters + numbers (symbols optional)
- Avoid ambiguous: 0/O and 1/l/I (easier to type)
- Unique: don’t reuse your email/bank password
Where to change your router password
Usually in your router admin page (often printed on the router). Look for: Wireless, Wi-Fi, WLAN, or Security.
Guest Wi-Fi tip
If your router supports it, enable a guest network with a different password. It keeps your main devices safer if you share access.
WPA2 / WPA3 reminder
Choose WPA2 or WPA3 (avoid WEP). A strong password helps, but modern encryption matters too.

What makes a good WiFi password?
A good WiFi password is long, random, and hard to guess. Aim for 16–24+ characters and avoid common words or patterns.
Should a WiFi password include symbols?
Symbols can improve strength, but some routers or devices handle them poorly. If you see issues, use letters + numbers and increase length.
What characters should I avoid for WiFi?
Avoid confusing characters like 0/O and 1/l/I if you’ll type it manually. The recommended preset avoids these.
