Change the du Wi-Fi password and network name
Steps
- Open the router admin page (usually 192.168.1.1 or the address on the sticker) and log in.
- WLAN/Wi-Fi settings: set SSID, then the pre-shared key - WPA2-PSK (AES) minimum, WPA3 if all devices support it.
- Change the router login password too; the printed default is public knowledge.
- Save and reboot; reconnect phones and IoT items with the new key.
- For smart-home gadgets that only speak 2.4 GHz, keep a separate 2.4 SSID so they survive future changes.

Guest Wi-Fi, IoT VLANs and smart-home safety
Steps
- Enable guest network with client isolation for visitors; keep the main SSID hidden from them.
- Put cameras/plugs on the 2.4 GHz IoT SSID and disable their cloud P2P if you do not use it.
- Change default camera passwords and update firmware; these are the usual entry point.
- For home offices, separate the work laptop onto its own SSID or VLAN.
- Turn off WPS on the router - it is a shortcut attackers use.

Switching a business line from Etisalat to du with the same landline number - what 3 months free really saves
Steps
- Check the landline number and account-name match on the Etisalat bill - the port request must carry identical details.
- Tell the account manager explicitly: migration with number retention, not a new installation - a new install defaults to promo pricing and loses the waiver question entirely.
- Ask for both totals written on the proposal: discounted-12-month vs waiver-12-month, and tick the cheaper one.
- Keep the Etisalat service live until the agreed port date so the internet does not dip during cutover.
- If Etisalat is still inside its minimum term, read their cancellation terms before scheduling.
