You can change your mobile hotspot security by adjusting the password and encryption settings on your device. Here's a general outline:
1. Accessing Hotspot Settings
- Android: Open Settings, then Network & internet, and select Hotspot & tethering.
- iOS: Go to Settings, then Cellular, and tap on Personal Hotspot.
2. Changing the Password
- Locate the password field: This is usually labeled as Password, Hotspot Password, or something similar.
- Enter a new password: Choose a strong and unique password that's easy for you to remember but difficult for others to guess.
- Confirm the password: Some devices may require you to re-enter the password for confirmation.
3. Modifying Security Settings
- Encryption type: You'll usually find options like WPA2/WPA3, WPA2, or WEP. WPA2/WPA3 is the most secure option.
- Network name (SSID): You can change the name of your hotspot to make it more identifiable.
4. Saving Changes
- Save your changes: Click Save, Apply, or OK to confirm the new settings.
Tip: To ensure maximum security, consider using a strong password and enabling WPA2/WPA3 encryption.
