How to Access Your Wi-Fi Router's Admin Page

Follow these steps to access your Wi-Fi router's admin page:

1. Connect to the Router

Make sure your device is connected to the router's network. This can be done via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet cable.

2. Find the Router's IP Address

The IP address is usually one of these common defaults:

  • 192.168.0.1
  • 192.168.1.1

If the default IP doesn’t work, find it using these steps:

  • Windows: Open Command Prompt, type ipconfig, and look for the Default Gateway.
  • macOS: Go to System Preferences > Network > Advanced > TCP/IP.
  • Android: Check Wi-Fi > Network details > Gateway.
  • iOS: Check Wi-Fi > (i) > Router.

3. Open the Router's Admin Page

Open a web browser and enter the router's IP address in the address bar. Press Enter.

4. Log In to the Admin Panel

Enter the router’s login credentials:

  • Default username: admin
  • Default password: admin or password

If you changed the credentials and forgot them, reset the router to factory settings.

5. Modify Settings

Once logged in, you can change settings such as Wi-Fi password, SSID, and more.

6. Secure Your Router

Set a strong admin password and enable WPA3 or WPA2 encryption for Wi-Fi security.
