What Happens When you don’t Change your PLDT Fibr WiFi Password

Your PLDT Fibr WiFi Password might be compromised using the Hex Code/Mac Table technique

How to block WiFi user in PLDT Home Fibr router (MAC & DHCP Filtering)?

When that happens, the hacker will only need to get the last five digits of your WiFi name. Then convert it using the Hex Code/Mac Table. That’s it, and your neighbors can now access your WiFi for Free by adding the default “PLDTWIFI + the converted five (5) last digits”.

The good thing about PLDT Home Fibr is that PLDT WiFi hacker apps will not work on it. And changing your PLDT Home Fibr WiFi name and password will keep the hacker at bay. Which what we are going to do.

Rename PLDT Home Fibr WiFi name/SSID

To change your PLDT Home Fibr SSID and password, you need to access your PLDT Fibr Modem/Router. For that, you need to open a browser (Chrome, Firefox &, etc.).

1 In your browser type, the PLDT Fibr’s I.P. address or URL, which is 192.168.1.1 by default. Don’s forget to press “Enter.”

2 Log in using your PLDT default admin username and password  (admin and 1234) . If you are having trouble logging in, you may check the newly updated PLDT Default Username and password and follow the instructions in How to Access PLDT Home Fibr admin.

          Changing your SSID & password will have no effect on limiting connected devices. Just make sure lang na na input niyo ang new password sa iyong phone.

        This is our problem, too. I’ve changed the SSID name and password and after that, some devices can’t connect. It always shows up “Connected, No Internet”. And then some of our devices could only connect to the wifi if they go upstairs (since our router was on the first floor of the house). Was there a chance that changing the SSID 2-4 has an effect on our connections? Because in WIRELESS STATUS, SSID2-4 were disable and in 5G WIRELESS STATUS, SSID 2-4 were enable.

          Please make sure from which WiFi are your devices are connected. Basic WiFi (2.4ghz) id different from 5G WiFi and not all devices can connect to 5G, it depends on phone’s support. You may try to enable all the SSID’s.
