How to log in to 192.168.5.1
- Connect to the router. Join its Wi-Fi network or plug a computer into one of its LAN ports. Mobile data will not work.
- Open the admin page. Type
http://192.168.5.1into the browser’s address bar (not the search box) and press Enter. - Accept the certificate warning if one appears. Routers use self-signed certificates, so “Not secure” on this page is normal inside your own network.
- Enter the username and password. Look at the sticker on the bottom of the router first: many models print a unique password there. The most common factory pair for this address is
sti.admin5/admin; the full list is in the tables below. - Change the default password in the administration or system section as soon as you are in.

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

192.168.5.1: few brands, many hand-made networks
192.168.5.1 is a private address in the 192.168.5.0/24 network. Few brands use it from the factory: our database lists five models from two brands, four from DQ Technology and one from No Geek Needed. Routers from the big brands are not on this list, so in a home network 192.168.5.1 usually means someone changed the network by hand: an installer, an administrator or the owner of a second router.
Username and password
The DQ Technology models in our database use an unusual pair: the username sti.admin5 with the password admin on three models, and the reverse, admin / sti.admin5, on one. If one fails, try the other. The No Geek Needed model has no factory pair in our database. If the network was set up by hand, try the default login for your router’s brand and, if that fails, ask whoever configured it.
