I'm confirming what the other guy said. You have to secure your network first before doing anything else. C would be the answer

Selected Answer: C
Whenever you get a new router, the first thing you should do is change the password immediately. Changing the SSID doesn't mean better security, it just changes the name but the password still stays the same, that's why you gotta change that password ASAP. Otherwise any one can try and guess the default password.

Changing SSID doesn't help security very much, if at all. You want to focus on securing your network first. If the SOHO router has been bought by the user, the default password is easily guessed. If it was provided by the ISP, the password is shown on the device, so anyone who sees the device will know the password.
