What is my router's user name and password? All High Speed Internet routers and gateways come from the manufacturer with a default user name and password. Each manufacturer canuse a different combination of user name and password as the default. If you didn't change the default password when you set up your router, you can use the table below to look up the default user name and password for your router or gateway.
If you changed your router or gateway password during setup, it's very important that you find where you wrote down your new security settings. If you can't remember the new password and can't find the paper where you wrote down the new security settings, you will have no choice but to reset your router or gateway to the default settings. This has serious consequences. When you reset your router or gateway, you not only reset the password to the default value, but you also delete all your network settings. This includes the SSID and security encryption key. That means you will have to reconfigure your network and all the wireless adapters on your home network computers.
