How to find your brand

  • Look at the front or sticker on the bottom/back of the router for the brand name and model.
  • The sticker usually shows the default gateway (e.g. 192.168.1.1) and username/password.
  • On Windows, open CMD and run ipconfig — Default Gateway is the router login IP.
  • Then open that IP in your browser while connected to the same Wi‑Fi or Ethernet.

What every brand guide covers

  • Default login IP and credentials
  • Changing Wi‑Fi name (SSID) and password (WPA2/WPA3)
  • Changing the router admin password
  • DNS, port forwarding, and basic security
  • Factory reset if you forgot the password

After changing Wi‑Fi settings, verify your connection with a HomeSpeed internet speed test. Full default list: Router Passwords.

Security tips for any brand

  • Change the default admin password on first login.
  • Use a strong Wi‑Fi password (WPA2 or WPA3); avoid WEP and open networks.
  • Disable WPS if you do not need it; update firmware from the vendor site only.
  • Turn on guest Wi‑Fi for visitors so they stay off your main LAN.
