Frequently asked questions

How do I find my modem router’s default IP address?

You can often find your router’s default IP address, as well as the default username and password on the sticker labeled on the back, side, or bottom of the physical modem router. If you have personalised it before, you might need to reset your router if you want to return the settings back to default.
