How Do I Find Out What My Router Password Is On Windows 10?
Look for a sticker on the back or bottom of your router. Most routers list the user name and password alongside the network name (SSID) and network key. If you don’t see a sticker, you can look up your router’s manufacturer and model online to find the default user name and password. Look for the brand and model number on the device, or check the manual. When you have the information you need, follow these steps to find your router’s default password:
Router Password vs Wi-Fi Password
Your router’s password is not the same as your network key. The network key, or Wi-Fi password, is the password you use to connect with your router’s wireless network. You can find your Wi-Fi password on Windows 10 if you’re already connected to the network. The router password is used to access your router’s settings, in case you need to set up port forwarding, change your IP address, or configure your security settings. You must also know your router’s user name and IP address to log in to your router.
Why Doesn’t My Router Password Work?
The default password may have been changed. Factory reset your router to restore the default password, user name, Wi-Fi network name, and network password.
