Default credentials work only until someone changes them. If none of these pairs fits, the password was changed; a factory reset restores the default.

How to log in to an ASUS router

  1. Connect to the router by Wi-Fi or cable.
  2. Open router.asus.com (www.asusrouter.com also works). Without the name, use the IP address: 192.168.50.1 on current models, 192.168.1.1 on older ones.
  3. Enter the login name and password. Older ASUS routers use admin / admin. Newer ones either print the login on the label or make you choose it in the Quick Internet Setup on the first visit.
  4. The router’s login is not the Wi-Fi name and Wi-Fi password, a common mix-up.

If admin / admin does not work

ASUS lets you change both the password and the login name, and once either is changed the defaults stop working. If someone set up the router before you, the username may no longer be admin. Check the label first: some models print a unique login there. When nobody knows the login, only a factory reset helps.

ASUS Router app and AiMesh

  • The ASUS Router app uses the same login name and password as the web page.
  • AiMesh: several ASUS routers can join one mesh network. All settings are made on the main router; the nodes have no separate settings page for everyday use.
  • ROG Rapture and TUF Gaming routers have the same login as other ASUS models; only the page design differs.

Forgot the password: factory reset

With the router on, press and hold the Reset (or Restore) button for more than 5 seconds, until the power light starts flickering, then release it. The router returns to factory settings; on the next visit to router.asus.com the setup wizard starts and asks for a new login.

ASUS: frequently asked questions

What is the default ASUS router login?

admin / admin on older models. Newer models print it on the label or ask you to create it during setup.

What is the ASUS router IP address?

192.168.50.1 on current models and 192.168.1.1 on older ones. router.asus.com finds either.

Why does admin / admin not work on my ASUS router?

The login was changed during setup, or the model uses a unique login from its label. If neither is known, reset the router.

Do I log in to each AiMesh node separately?

No. Log in to the main AiMesh router; it manages the whole network.
