- Change the default password in the administration or system section as soon as you are in.

192.168.4.1 is usually a setup hotspot, not a router
192.168.4.1 is the default address that ESP8266 and ESP32 chips use when they run their own temporary Wi-Fi network. These chips sit inside many smart plugs, light controllers, sensors and DIY projects. While the device has no Wi-Fi settings yet, it creates a hotspot, and its configuration page opens at 192.168.4.1.
Firmware such as Tasmota and ESPHome, and libraries such as WiFiManager, all use this setup mode. The hotspot usually carries the firmware or device name, for example “tasmota-XXXX”.
How to configure a device at 192.168.4.1
- Connect your phone or laptop to the device’s own Wi-Fi network. It appears in the list of networks after the device is powered on.
- Stay connected even if the phone says “No internet”. Turn off mobile data, otherwise the phone may switch back to a network with internet.
- Open
http://192.168.4.1. Some devices show a sign-in page automatically, like hotel Wi-Fi. - Pick your home Wi-Fi and enter its password. Use a 2.4 GHz network: most ESP-based devices cannot connect to 5 GHz.
- Save. The device restarts, joins your home network and the hotspot disappears. Find its new address in your router’s list of connected devices.
When 192.168.4.1 does not open
- The device already joined your home Wi-Fi, so the hotspot is gone. Look for it in the router’s device list instead.
- The setup hotspot has a timeout. Restart the device to bring it back; many firmwares also return to setup mode after several quick power cycles.
- You are looking for a router, not a smart device. Routers rarely use this address; check your default gateway.
192.168.4.1: frequently asked questions
Is there a password for 192.168.4.1?
Usually not for the setup page itself. Some firmwares protect the hotspot with a password printed in the device manual, and Tasmota or ESPHome let you set a web password later.
Why does my phone disconnect from the setup hotspot?
Phones leave Wi-Fi networks without internet. Turn off mobile data and confirm that you want to stay connected.
Why can my device not see my Wi-Fi network?
Most ESP8266 and ESP32 devices support only 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. Make sure your router broadcasts a 2.4 GHz network.
