QUICK START
Start with the option that matches your model. Defaults apply to the factory state; use the password you chose if the device has already been set up.
Options are ordered by manufacturer documentation and coverage among the listed models. Hardware, firmware, and ISP versions can differ.
MODEL DETAILS
Passwords are case-sensitive. “Leave blank” means an empty field; “Not specified” means the source does not provide that detail. Entries without a model are brand-level references.

GET CONNECTED
The admin password opens the router’s settings. The Wi-Fi password connects a device to the wireless network. They may be different, and an ISP or cloud account can be separate again.
Check capitalization and the device label, then use the manufacturer’s password-recovery instructions. A factory reset erases settings and may require ISP setup details; follow the instructions for your exact model.
