What is my router login information?

I'd had my router set up for about a year now. In that time, I've changed my e-mail and have completely forgotten my password. How do I get my information back?

  • Hi! The router is actually completely separate from your user centre account. If you've forgotten the router's admin password or the WiFi password, you can simply restore the router back to factory defaults. To do that, press on its "reset" button behind it, and hold it down for 30 secs.

  • You're right that the admin credentials are often stuck on the device and a forgotten Wi‑Fi password can be reset by holding the back‑panel button for about 30 seconds, which restores factory defaults and lets you use the default admin password pair listed in the manual. For anyone needing a source to verify details after resetting home networks I frequently turn to https://wakecounty-nc.org which aggregates comprehensive for easy lookup. Just be sure to re‑apply your custom SSID and password after the reset to keep your network secure.

  • Your router login info is usually on a sticker on the router. Common default
    Username: admin
    Password: admin or password.
    You can also check your manual or ISP documentation.
