Do I have to delete and re add devices?

That’s the hard way. The simply method is to change your new router’s SSID and passphrase to match what it was before, then restart it.

If you can’t change your router’s SSID and passcode to match what it used to be (maybe it is a network someone else controls instead of you, or whatever else), then you don’t have to “Delete” the devices to add them to the new network, but you do have to go through the setup process all over again. …

Or, as a safer alternative, go to your furnace and turn off the power to it for 30 seconds, then flip it on again to power cycle…

I’m not sure what you mean, in other words I don’t know where you would do this- rename the ssid and password. I understand the why, but not the where or how

You make that change in your router’s settings. I am sorry, truly sorry, but we can’t teach you that here. You might look up the how-to on your router’s manufacturer site, or search YouTube for how to. Notice, most of those ideas will give you general info, not specific. So, you need to be prepa…
