Will Changing Password Boot All Devices?

2020-11-05 02:23:36 - last edited 2020-11-05 07:26:21

Model: Deco M9 Plus

Hardware Version: V2

Firmware Version: Latest from Website Via Utility

A dumb question but I plan on changing the Wifi password this weekend to something stronger so here goes:

Will all the devices currently connected to the network get booted and force me to reconnect all of them with the new password? Or will they remain on the network and only new devices joining will need the new password?

Only asking because I have about 40 devices connected on wifi...

Thanks!

Hello, thanks for asking.

You will need to reconnect to the Deco network on all of your 40 devices if you change the current wireless password to a new one.
