How to hide Streamyx Wifi network name on Innacomm router

July 9, 2015

Learn how to hide your Streamyx Wifi network name (SSID) to prevent it from being seen by strangers. Your Wifi network won’t be seen by anybody when they scan for an available Wifi network.

This method is very useful, once the Wifi network name is hidden, you or anyone will not be able to find it if you are using an automatic Wifi scan on your device.

Turn on your computer or any device you’re going to use for this tutorial.
Turn on the modem.
Connect your computer to the modem through the Wifi; the default SSID and password can be found on the sticker at the bottom of the modem.

(If you are using Unifi, here’s how to hide Unifi Wifi network name.)

Note: I’m using the default modem provided by TM which is TM Streamyx wireless G ADSL 2+ modem model Innacomm W3400V6.

Hide Streamyx Wifi network name on Innacomm router

Just follow the step by step instructions below:

Open any internet browser.
Go to http://192.168.1.1.
Enter your login detail:
- Username/ID: tmadmin
- Password: Adm@XXXX (XXXX is the last 4 digit of your modem MAC address)
Click Login.
Select Wireless.
Select Basic.
Find Hide Access Point and tick the box beside it.
Click Apply/Save to save the changes.

Done. You’ve successfully hidden your Streamyx Wifi network name.

Note: Every time you connect a new device to the hidden Wifi, please enter the network name manually.

In case you forget or don’t know, here’s how to connect to the hidden Wifi network in Windows 10.

  Bro, basically they are the same. It depends on the modem/router you are using. First, find wireless settings and look for “Hide access point” or broadcast.

  Hi, I have updated the post. Actually the 4 digit is the last 4 digit of your modem MAC id. You can find it on the sticker at the bottom of your modem.
