An ADSL modem is a useful and convenient thing regardless of the manufacturer. This network device can store connection settings and automatically reconnect when the connection is lost. Usually the settings are entered once and for a long time. The next time you access the modem, remembering the login and password for entering the settings page can be quite difficult.
It is necessary
- - a computer;
- - documents from the modem;
- - modem.
Instructions
Step 1
Examine the modem itself carefully. Many manufacturers put on the equipment sticker not only the model and serial number, but also the default login and password. They are usually quite simple - admin - admin, admin - 1234, Admin - 1111 and the like. Typically, this information depends on the service provider. Some providers use their company name and some variables as a login.
Step 2
Read the instructions for the modem. On one of the pages (which describes how to access the modem settings through a computer over the network), the IP of the modem is indicated (usually 192.168.1.1). Look for your username and password there. Download the instructions for the modem from the manufacturer's website. If you did not find the login and password either on the case or in the abbreviated instructions, a complete manual from the manufacturer will help you.
Step 3
If the default password does not work or you are sure that you changed it (but, of course, forgot the new password), reset the modem to factory settings. There should be a small miniature button on the device case, which returns the modem firmware to its original state. Use a paper clip. And be prepared that the connection settings will need to be entered again.
Step 4
If you cannot throw off the modem for some unknown reason, and access to the modem is blocked, it is possible that the microcircuit is broken. Contact the manufacturer's service center. If you have a guarantee from the modem, take it to the center where you purchased it. You can also call a specialist home to set everything up for you. In general, we can say that it is not difficult to find out the data. Basically, they are all prescribed in the documents, since they are the main tools in creating a new connection to the Internet.
