I’ve chosen to add the name “ Webbies” so our new PLDT wifi name is now “ PLDTHOMEDSL Webbies”.Ĭlick on “Apply changes”. You cannot remove the “PLDTHOMEDSL” name, but what you can do is add some words after it to personalize your modem and to easily identify it in case you have several neighbors who also have PLDT HOMEDSL internet. Go to the field that says SSID, and add a ‘name extension’ to your modem. Next click on “SET-UP”, then “WLAN”, then “BASIC”.
HOW TO CHECK WIFI CHANNEL ON MODEM PASSWORD
And then just follow the rest of the CHANGING WIFI USERNAME and PASSWORD on this post, once you are inside the admin dashboard. If you are facing the same issue, you may try the troubleshooting that I followed. The page loads and prompted me to change the password, so I did. I tried logging in to PLDT admin dashboard 192.168.1.1 using just that ‘admin’ username and “1234” password. This rep then advised me that to try using username “admin” then password “1234”. He said that PLDT has temporarily disabled the username ‘ adminpldt‘ due to a hacking issue that they are dealing with. Anyhow, so I was able to chat with a rep. PLDT Hotline number is now 171 (it used to be 172 for Broadband). Since I know I key-ed in the correct password and the username is correct, but I can’t enter the admin dashboard, the best recourse would be to call the hotline for assistance. The message was “ Username or password error, try again!“.

If you are experiencing the same problem, and you also want to change or adjust the name of your wifi modem from PLDT, or to change the password, or to do both, here is a tutorial for you.įirst, get a LAN cable and connect your computer directly to the modem. After I refreshed I can only see 1 Active Client connection and that’s legit. So I’ve decided right then and there to change our PLDT HOMEDSL wifi SSID name and also its password.Īfter doing so, so far so good. I thought it’s just okay to keep things at default.īut I think our wifi was hacked or someone found a way to connect to our modem, simply because wifi remains default at “PLDTHOMEDSL” using the default password. Yahhh, I forgot to request the technician when my modem was replaced to also change the wifi name and pass phrase. My mistake is that I did not change the default PLDT wifi name and password. So what then could possibly caused my PLDT Wifi to be so slow?Ī nagging thought persists that I finally decided to check the wifi settings to know how many are actually connecting to our PLDT wifi, and lo and behold there were 4 Active Connections when it should have been just one – my laptop. It’s so slow that it’s weird especially since I’m not downloading anything and I am the only one at home using our wifi, and I only have one website open. I was working as usual on my online projects when I noticed that my PLDT HomeDSL internet speed is crawling. Update or change your PLDT wifi name and password to protect your modem and wifi from authorized access with this easy step by step guide.
