If I have a strong password on my Orbi wifi network, 20 random characters, does a hacker have to get though that to get to my computers? Or is there a way around that?

Thank you. That's what I thouight, Wanted to make sure. Have an indivdual I believe as hacked me; possiible to decode shorter passwords, but network code needed only once. Seems like the most efficient way to protect.

Yeah - If possible, use auto-generated password by a browser/iPhone or some other security tool, which is far more complex and secured normal pass phrase.
