How to Access Your Router Admin Panel
- Connect your device to the router via WiFi or ethernet cable.
- Open a web browser and type your router’s default IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.1) in the address bar.
- Enter the default username and password from the table above.
- If the default credentials don’t work, check the label on the bottom of your router for the specific credentials.
- Once logged in, change the default password immediately for security.
What to Do If You Forgot Your Router Password
If you’ve changed your router password and forgotten it, you’ll need to perform a factory reset. Hold the reset button on the back of your router for 10–30 seconds until the lights flash. This restores the default settings. See our guides for resetting a TP-Link router or resetting an Xfinity router.
