JioFi: How to Change JioFi Password via Website and MyJio App
The JioFi is likely one of the most popular portable broadband devices on the market. The Jiofi device has a lot of cool features and can share a 4G hotspot with a Jio SIM card.
Users can also connect multiple devices to the hotspot to easily connect to the internet. But sometimes you share your JioFi password too much, and then you don’t get enough bandwidth to do the work you need to do on your device. Now is when you should change your JioFi WiFi password. But do you change the password on your Jiofi?
In this article, we’ll show you not just one, but two easy ways to change the password on your JioFi device without getting too hot and bothered. Let’s look at it more closely.
What is JioFi?

For those who don’t know, the Reliance JioFi is a portable broadband device that lets users connect to the internet on the go. With this device, you can connect multiple devices to the internet quickly. The company says that you can connect more than 10 devices and one device via USB. With the JioFi dongle, you can get download speeds of up to 150 Mbps and upload speeds of up to 50 Mbps.
Your JioFi Wi-Fi network’s password is a random mix of letters, numbers, and symbols by default. But that password is hard to remember, and you have to save it somewhere if you want to connect new devices to the network.
Also, if you’ve told anyone your password, there’s a chance that other people will find out about it. So, you might want to think about changing the password for your JioFi Wi-Fi network.
Changing your JioFi WiFi password is easy; once you’ve changed it, no one will be able to connect to your network without knowing the new password.
A Wi-Fi password can be between 8 and 32 characters long and can have letters, numbers, and special characters. When setting up a new password, always use a combination of letters, numbers, and special symbols. This makes it hard for people to guess your password and keeps your Wi-Fi network safe.
