GOOD MORNING ERATH COUNTY

In today's ever-changing world, who would have thought we'd need added cybersecurity protection in our own homes? With so many smart devices connected to the internet, it's more important than ever to stay vigilant. Here are a few simple tips to help keep those cyber pests at bay.

Security Hints & Tips
Secure Your Home Wi-Fi Router
________________________________________

You lock your front door to keep your home safe, but you might not think about locking down the device that connects every phone, laptop, and smart gadget in your house to the internet. A few extra precautions while setting up and maintaining your router can help keep you and your home safe and secure.
Set Up Your Router
A few extra steps during setup can close common openings for cybercriminals:
• Change your router's default username and password, since these are often printed on the device and easy to look up online.
• Rename your Wi-Fi network so it doesn't reveal your router's brand or model.
• Turn on WPA3 encryption, or WPA2 if WPA3 isn't available, to protect your data.

Getting these settings right from the start helps keep your network secure.
Tips to Maintain Your Router
We recommend a few regular habits to keep your router safe and secure:
• Turn on automatic updates so your router stays patched against known security weaknesses.
• Reboot your router weekly to clear its memory, refresh its connection, and help close small security gaps over time.
• Check your router's app or settings page every so often, and remove any unfamiliar connected devices.

Keeping your router up to date and secure helps keep your whole household safe online.

STEPHENVILLE, Texas – Oct. 5, 2026 – Atmos Energy will perform routine maintenance resulting in the safe removal of natural gas beginning on Tuesday, Oct. 6 through Wednesday, Oct. 14, from approximately 7 a.m. to 12 p.m. each weekday at 39254 FM 219 in Stephenville. Atmos Energy remains focused on its vision to be the safest provider of natural gas services, and this system modernization work demonstrates a continued investment in safety, innovation, environmental sustainability, and our communities.



Atmos Energy is committed to protecting and preserving the environment, and this procedure is a necessary, safe, and standard industry practice used to extract natural gas from an isolated section of pipeline. Residents in the area may hear a noise and the scent of mercaptan, a harmless odorant that gives natural gas its “rotten egg” smell, may be present during the operation.



Atmos Energy customers will not experience any service interruption while the work is being performed, and city staff, public officials, 911 operators, and emergency responders have been advised.
