Change the WiFi and admin password on your hub

Your EE hub or router has a WiFi password, which you'll need to get your devices online. You'll find it on the card on the back of your hub. This is different from the hub's admin password, which gives you access to change the settings. That password is also on the card on the back of the hub.

Changing your hub's details using the EE apps

You can change your WiFi and admin passwords - along with the name of your hub - to something more memorable. Once you've changed your login info, you'll need to enter the new details into all of your devices to get them back onto your home WiFi.
