Hackers are hacking wireless networks for a long time however they do not find it difficult to hack your wireless if you never modified your wireless router's admin security key from its default.
If you never modified the admin password on your Netgear router from the primary, then all the hacker must do is search the default parole and log in. To improve the safety of your network, modify the default password of your Netgear router.
The steps are given below to vary your password.
1- Open your Netgear router's configuration page. You'll access your router's configuration page through an internet browser on a pc connected to your network. If you cannot connect via Wi-Fi as a result of you do not understand the security key, using coaxial cable to attach your pc on to the router. This way you may bypass the necessity for the Wi-Fi parole.
2- Enter your Netgear router's username and security key. Each router needs a username and password before your access. If you have never modified the username is "admin" and therefore the security key is "password".
3- Open the Wireless section. Once you're logged into your router, search the Wireless section of the configuration page. The correct name changes from manufacturer to manufacturer. However, usually, you're craving for a "Wireless" or "Wireless Settings/Setup" tab or button.
Change your wireless network name and the name should not include any personal information. Changing the name will help you to stop people from trying to break into it.
Save your settings by entering your password, click the apply button to save it.
