How to Set up Wifi at Home

[Sugar_Kane]

From your wifi device, if it is a computer, try to look at what your router address is... In windows, youll see this if you type ipconfig /all. Or in mac or linux ifconfig. The item you will be interested in is router. That is the router address you have.

From a browser type the router address and it would lead you to a login for the router itself... I think default user ( as of the router in my mom's place - similar to yours) was pldtadmin. Password was 1234567890. If you get in... Then you can change the settings of the SSID. Item...

If in case the user / password i gave here is wrong, you can call their call center and they will give it to you... Kung magtanong kung bakit... Sabihin mo na lang you want to set more strict security sa browsing like filtering **** etc... Hehe.

It's a bit complicated pala. Filtering **** is not really a problem for me. hehehe.

*liempoboi, I like yours better. Dumihin ang puti kasi.

so hypothetically, my neighbor or anyone within the range can use my wifi since there's no password?

Oh sorry. PLDT. I won't setup a password na lang.

WIFI feels so liberating pala!!! There's not much difference in speed pala compared to LAN. I love how I have less wires na in my room

it sure is liberating, not only sa laptop pati sa android smartphone. pwede mag transfer ng files without plugging in phone or ejecting the micro sd

the only speed diff is in file transfer. using laptop with wifi and desktop with LAN cable and a belkin N router, i can get 4.5 MB/s file transfer speeds. pero > 10 MB/s if both naka LAN cable

Just bought a Edimax N300 universal wifi extender. I set it up in my parents house. They are using the free PLDT router/modem with very limited range. Setup was a pain in the behind. hate reading instruction manuals. Anyway, was able to get it to run and they now have wifi on the ground floor. No signal before.

The thing has its own ssid. Password has to be the same with your original ssid. So if your ssid is "abcd" the edimax extender will be "abcdXXX" So you know which one your connected to. Did not try to run speed tests. It works and I'm happy. Worth it.

I'm guessing if you have a hacienda, you can use 2 or 3 of these to get coverage for a big area.
