How To Stop Wi-Fi Stealing And Catch That Person

• Punch in the IP address of your router in your browser address bar directly like 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1
• If the above address does not work, you can also try routerlogin.com and it will redirect to your router admin panel.
• Enter the administrator username and password.
• Once you are inside the admin panel, look for menu options like ‘Connected devices’ or ‘Attached devices’.
• If you are able to find that menu, you can see the MAC Address, IP Address and Device name of all the devices which are connected to your network. This is how my Attached devices looks like.
• If you see some extra person’s name or some extra device then they are the one who might be using your wifi without your permission. Read on to know the steps to stop wifi stealing.
