What is 192.168.10.1?

192.168.10.1 is an IP address. An IP address is the same as a URL / website address, but only in numbers. Every website address we use has an IP address.

In other words, we humans use alphabetic URLs to access web pages, such as “Windowsfish.com,” but browsers use their digital equivalents, also known as IP addresses, to access them.

This specific IP address, 192.168.10.1, is that of a router! This means that some brands of routers use this IP address to allow users to access their web panel / admin center / control center.

In other words, you can think of this as the “Control Panel” address of your router.

You need to access this panel to change almost anything about your router, starting with the router’s username and password, WiFi credentials, firewalls, and so on.

Which brands use 192.168.10.1?

You should know that the 192.168.10.1 IP address is not universal for all routers. This means that even if multiple router brands use 192.168.10.1 as the login portal address, they do not all.

This guide will be useless if your router is from a brand using another IP address. Brands that use this specific IP address as the Webpanel address are:

• Motorola
• Trendnet
• Repotec
• Zoom
• Actiontec
• and Zyxel.

Obviously, it is possible that other routers use the address, but those listed above certainly do.

192.168.10.1 Default user name and password

Since the 192.168.10.1 IP address allows users to change the settings of their routers, it should not let a stranger enter and wreak havoc, right? So, obviously, you need a user name and a password to log in.

From now on, each company preconfigures a set of default user name and password for their routers. This helps users configure their routers immediately because the credentials are the default values ​​for each new router of the same make and model.

Again, these login credentials are defined by the “router company”. Therefore, even if your router uses this IP address, this does not mean that the connection information will be exactly the same as that of another router using the same IP address.

Do not worry, we’ve listed as many combinations as possible, and chances are one of them works for your router:

• Username: admin
• Password: admin

or

• Username: admin
• Password: password

or

• Username: (White)
• Password: admin

Then you must select an authentication type. If you do not know what it is, just select WPA2.
