What should I do if I forget my router password? How to reset login

As we need to remember more and more passwords, it is inevitable that we will encounter times when we don't remember them. In particular, there are more users who don't often log in and forget the router password. So how can we log in again after forgetting the router password? Let's learn about it.

Due to different brands and different models of routers, the reset methods are different, but they are roughly the same, and there are some commonalities, so here we use a comprehensive method to solve this problem.

The following is mainly for you to explain the router is: TP-LINK, other routers are similar. Hope to give you some help.

1. Unplug all network cables from the router and only keep the power cord;

2. Then prick the "reset" hole on the back of the router with a slightly pointed nib;

3. Some have the 'reset' button, but they also press and hold the 'reset' button;

4. Cut off the power supply of the router again. Remember to hold down the reset key or the reset hole. Because some routers need to be reset when the power is turned on, so in this comprehensive method, we also turn on the router power, turn on the power again,

5. At this time, all lights on the front panel of the router will flash quickly:

6. Keep the power on and turn on the power for about 5 seconds (or 10 seconds for some), and the indicator light will return to normal flashing. At this time, release the reset key to restore the router configuration to the factory default value.

7. After restoring the factory value, the router account is usually admin, and some passwords are also admin, and some passwords are blank. Then the router background management IP should be 192.168.1.1, and some are 192.168.0.1. Some of these information can be seen from the router backplane:

8. Then we connect the computer with the network cable, and the other end of the network cable is connected to any LAN port on the router (generally marked in yellow), but do not connect the WAN port at first; or connect the router SSID wirelessly

9. Then if the computer can get the IP, the router is reset successfully. Then we should be able to input the router background management IP (such as 192.168.1.1) into the router through ie.

When you use a laptop or a smart phone to access the Internet via WiFi, you often forget the password of the wireless router. How can you find it back? The specific steps are as follows:

Step 1: enter 192.168.1.1 in the address field and click enter.

Step 2: in the pop-up dialog box, enter: user name: admin, password: admin. Then click OK to enter the router setting interface.

Step 3: select wireless settings on the left. (Note: the settings of each router are not necessarily the same. See the display of router settings page for details.)

Step 4: after selecting wireless settings, select 'wireless security settings' in the pop-up settings options

Step 5: then the information page of security settings will pop up, where you can find the password of the wireless router.

Why do many user routers need passwords?

In fact, when a router is newly purchased, it also has an account and password. Generally, the default user name and password are admin, However, considering that all friends who surf the Internet through the router can log in to the router, in order to consider the security, the router in the high security situation will add a password. If there is no password, anyone can log in to the router and set some broadband adjustment or wrong settings, which will lead to the situation that the Internet can not be accessed. Therefore, there are many Internet cafes and enterprise internal routers The user name and password are not the default admin user name and password.

I'm afraid many people have forgotten the wireless router's login password. Fortunately, the manufacturer has already had a solution: reset the wireless router by pressing the reset button of the wireless router with a pin (such as a paper clip, toothpick, etc.). The white circle on the right of WAN port is the white circle (the location and style of different wireless routers will be different, but the same, there will be "reset" nearby).

How to reset different brands of products:

TP-LINK: in the power on state, press and hold the reset button for more than 5 seconds, the sys indicator light flashes rapidly for 3 times, and then release it to complete the reset.

D-Link: press and hold the reset key for 7-8 seconds in the power on state, and then release it.

Tenda: press the reset key for more than 7 seconds under power on state.

Mercury: press and hold the reset button for more than 5 seconds when the power is on, and the reset is completed when the sys light changes from slow flashing to fast flashing.

Fast: press and hold the reset key for 5 seconds under the power on state, and the system status indicator will flash rapidly for 3 times. After sending the card, the reset is successful.

Configuration after reset:

After the reset, all the configurations of the wireless router are restored to the factory state and need to be reset. The default management address, user name, password and other information can be viewed in the manual or the nameplate on the wireless router. If the user has previously changed the IP address of the LAN port of the wireless router (especially the network segment) and manually configured the IP address of the client, the customer needs to be reconfigured Only the IP of the end can successfully log in to the management interface of the wireless router.

Conclusion:

Although it's not a big problem to forget the login password of wireless router, it's really annoying. Especially when there are many users, it's better to backup the password in advance, just in case.
