You will need to log in to the router before you can set up your Wireless N router or fix a network problem. This means using the default IP address and login info. A lot of people get stuck during login to the router, but it’s very simple when you know what to do. So let’s start with this guide to login Wireless N router.

Step 1: Connect to the Router

To start, your computer or phone needs to be connected to the router. You can do this:

• Connect with an Ethernet cable (best for setup)
• Or by connecting to the Wi-Fi network

Look at the sticker on the bottom of your router. You’ll see the default network name (SSID) and Wi-Fi password. Use that to connect if the router hasn’t been set up yet.

Step 2: Find the Router’s Default IP Address

Now you have to go to the router settings page. That’s what you need: the router’s factory-set IP address. Most of the time, they are:

• 192.168.0.1
• 192.168.1.1
• 192.168.10.1

You can check the sticker on the router to confirm. Or do this on a Windows PC:

1. Click Start and search for Command Prompt
2. Type ipconfig and press Enter
3. Look for the Default Gateway, that’s your router’s IP address

Step 3: Open the Login Page

Now open your web browser (Chrome, Firefox, and Edge any will work). In the address bar at the top, type the IP address you found earlier. For example: 192.168.1.1

Then press Enter. This will take you to the router login screen. If the page doesn’t load, try these

• Make sure you typed the address correctly
• Check that you’re connected to the router
• Try a different browser

Step 4: Use the Wireless N Default Login

At the login screen, enter the default username and password. For most Wireless N routers, try:

• Username: admin
• Password: admin/password

These are also use for TP-Link, Netgear, D-Link, and other brands. If those not work, see the router label or search for your model online using Wireless N default login.

If it still locked out? The router may have been used before. You’ll need to do a factory reset.

Step 5: Reset the Router (If Needed)

If you don’t know the password and can’t log in, reset the router:

1. Find the small reset button (usually in the back)
2. Use a paperclip or pin to press and hold it
3. Keep holding for about 10 seconds until the lights flash

The router will restart and go back to default settings. Then, try logging in again using the steps above.

Step 6: Change Your Settings (Important!)

Once you’re logged in, you should change a few things right away:

• Change the login password (so no one else can access it)
• Rename your Wi-Fi network (SSID)
• Set a strong Wi-Fi password (use WPA2 or WPA3 security)

Don’t leave it on the default “admin/admin.” That’s not safe. When you changed all the settings, and then save them. Now, you may need to reconnect to the WiFi using the new SSID and password.
