Step 4: Open WiFi security settings

- After logging in, select Wireless > Wireless Security.
- This is where you can change your WiFi password.

Step 5: In the Wireless Security section, you have 4 options:

- Disable Security: If you use this mode your WiFi will be completely free and without a password.

- WEP: An old security standard, running on 256-bit WEP technology and still one of the most widely used standards in the past.

- WPA: Extremely strong WiFi security standard, allowing you to use a combination of characters and letters for your password.

- WPA 2: The latest standard to upgrade the current WPA, the most popular and widely used with strong security capabilities, advanced protection algorithms and up to now no one has been able to completely crack this system.

After choosing 1 of the 4 standards, you just enter the password in the Password box and Save it.

Step 6: After saving the password, there will be a notification asking to reboot the device.

Step 7: Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Click here to restart the program.

So, you have completed changing the TP-LINK TL-WR845N WiFi password with just a few simple steps. This is a popular device, supports good security and is easy to manage. If you use other TP-Link router lines, the implementation process is similar.
