Standard passwords for routers

Most of the routers shipped to customers with default passwords. In order to enter for the first time in the router management interface, you will need to enter the default password in data entry form. Typically, this password is specified in the documentation that comes in set with the router.

If you do not have documentation (you got a router from someone as a gift, or buy a router that was previously used, or simply lost your documentation), you can try using the default passwords for the router and see if they work. The standard passwords are the same for each router of specified brand and specified model. If you search only by brand and model of your router, you can find the default passwords and usernames.
