In order to make it secure you can use password protection or you may also make your wifi hidden so that no one can find it after search except those who know its name. For setting the password follow these steps;

Log in to your wifi router using its IP (192.168.1.1 in case of TP-Link)

Navigate to Status > Wireless > Wireless Settings

Here, check the tab for “Enable Wireless Security” and in the tab below it, enter the desired password.

Hi Friend,

These steps might help you in setting up a password in your wireless router:

– In your address bar, type this URL: http://192.168.1.1/WL_WPATable.asp

– When you press enter, the page will ask you for your username and password.

– Use the username admin and for the password, leave it blank. Then press enter.

– From Disable, choose WPA Personal.

– Then, you can see the shared key panel. This will be the password that you are the only who knows it. You can enter anything you want except spaces.

Hope this help.
