Default Router Passwords: Complete List of Login Credentials for Every Major Brand (2026)

Locked out of your router? Whether you’re setting up a new device, resetting your network, or troubleshooting a connection issue, knowing the default login credentials for your router is essential. This guide covers the default IP address, username, and password for over 25 popular router brands — verified and updated for 2026.

How to Log In to Your Router’s Admin Panel

Before diving into the credentials list, here’s how the login process works for virtually every router:

1. Connect your device (computer, phone, or tablet) to the router via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet cable. A wired connection is recommended during setup to avoid being disconnected if settings change.
2. Open any web browser and type the router’s default IP address (such as 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1) into the address bar. Press Enter.
3. When the login page appears, enter the default username and password from the table below.
4. Once logged in, you’ll have access to the router’s admin panel where you can change the Wi-Fi password, SSID, security settings, and more.

Important: If the default IP address doesn’t load or loads slowly, your router may use a different gateway. Common alternatives include 192.168.0.1, 192.168.1.1, 10.0.0.1, and 192.168.1.254. You can also find the correct IP by checking the sticker on the bottom or back of your router, or by running ipconfig (Windows) or ifconfig (Mac/Linux) in a terminal.

What to Do If the Default Password Doesn’t Work

If the default credentials listed above aren’t working, it usually means the password was changed at some point — either by you, someone else on the network, or your ISP during installation. Here’s what to try:

Check the router’s physical label. Most routers have a sticker on the bottom or back of the device that displays the default IP address, admin username, and admin password. This is the most reliable source of information for your specific model.

Try common alternate defaults. Some routers accept variations like a blank password, “password,” or “1234.” It’s worth trying a few combinations before resorting to a reset.

Perform a factory reset. If nothing works, you can reset the router to its original factory settings. Locate the small Reset button (usually a recessed pinhole) on the back of the router, press and hold it with a pin or paperclip for 10–30 seconds while the router is powered on, and wait for the device to restart. After the reset, the default credentials will be restored — but all custom settings (Wi-Fi name, password, port forwarding, etc.) will be erased.

Contact your ISP. If your router was provided by your internet service provider, they may have set custom credentials. Call their support line and ask for the default admin login details for your specific device.

How to Find Your Router’s IP Address

If none of the standard IP addresses work, you can find your router’s exact gateway address using your device’s built-in tools:

On Windows: Open Command Prompt (press Win + R, type cmd, press Enter) and type ipconfig. Look for the “Default Gateway” value under your active network adapter. That’s your router’s IP.

On macOS: Open Terminal and type netstat -nr | grep default. The IP address next to “default” is your router’s gateway.

On Android: Go to Settings, then Wi-Fi, tap the connected network, and look for “Gateway” in the network details.

On iPhone / iPad: Go to Settings, then Wi-Fi, tap the (i) icon next to your connected network, and look for “Router.”

Security Tips After Logging In

Accessing your router’s admin panel with default credentials is only the first step. Once you’re in, take these steps to secure your network:

Change the admin password immediately. Default passwords are publicly available (as you can see from this very article). Anyone on your network could access your settings if the default is unchanged. Choose a strong, unique password that combines letters, numbers, and special characters.

Update your Wi-Fi password. Use WPA3 encryption if your router supports it, or WPA2 at minimum. Avoid WEP, as it is extremely easy to crack.

Rename your SSID. Change the default network name to something that doesn’t reveal the router brand or model, as that information makes it easier for attackers to look up default credentials.

Disable WPS. Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) has known vulnerabilities. Unless you actively use it, turn it off.

Keep firmware updated. Router manufacturers release firmware updates to patch security flaws and improve performance. Check for updates regularly in the admin panel, or enable automatic updates if the option is available.

Disable remote management. Unless you specifically need to access your router from outside your home network, disable this feature to reduce your attack surface.
