Model: Deco M4  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.8.2 build 2025

My home wifi was password protected and as soon as I set up the deco it now shows up as available to join without a password which is concerning for security reasons. How do I fix it so it has a password

Hi, welcome to the community.

The default WiFi SSID is open, and during the setup, it will ask for creating a new SSID and a password, then the default SSID will disappear.

Have you finished the setup of Deco on the Deco App?

You can refer to this link to change the wireless settings:How to change the Wireless Settings on your Deco app

 

Wait for your reply.

Best regards.

Hi, thanks for the update.

Can you still detect this SSID under the WLAN settings on the mobile?

Can you also share a screenshot of this SSID?

 

Wait for your reply.

Best regards.
