Make Sure Your Internet Connection is Clean

For most of us, connecting to the internet is the number one thing we do every day. It’s so easy to do. Especially because WiFi is everywhere: your home, your friend’s home, the airport, the café. You name it. But do you know if your WiFi connection is clean?

A clean WiFi connection means virus-free and safe.

We aren’t just talking about an infected computer or handheld device. Did you know that your router can get infected, too?

You might not even notice if your router is infected. But if it is, there can be a world of trouble for everything on the network connected to it. That’s why, you need to make sure your internet connection is clean. Here’s how:

Why & how to protect your router

Keeping your router and internet connection clean can be easy to do. And it is important to do. If your router gets infected, hackers have an easier job of getting your sensitive information.

For example, if hackers can get in, they can lead you to fake sites that look real. If you enter your information into these duped sites (for example, your bank’s site) then the hackers can get your credentials.

There are router checkers out there that can help you assess if your router is clean or not. But you can also be proactive with a WiFi manager that constantly troubleshoots and flushes the network, so that you know your router connection is always clean.
