Default IP adress for spectrum routers
Updated October 23, 2026 · Source: Spectrum Support
Spectrum settings live in your account, not only in the router
Spectrum supplies its own WiFi routers and modem-router combos, and for most of them the main place to change settings is your Spectrum account. Spectrum says that WiFi equipment received in 2013 or later shows its network name and password online:
- Sign in at Spectrum.net or in the My Spectrum app with your Spectrum username and password.
- Select Services, then Internet. Your WiFi name and password are shown there.
- Select the arrow next to the network, change the name or password and save.
Spectrum warns that after a change the sticker on the router is out of date, and every device has to reconnect with the new password.
Logging in to the router or modem directly
Some Spectrum equipment, mostly modem-router combos, also has a web page. Spectrum’s instructions are to connect a computer by Ethernet cable and open the address listed for your device: 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1, depending on the model. The username and password for that page are in Spectrum’s table for your device or on the equipment label. On some Spectrum routers a direct login does not open at all, as Spectrum’s community moderators point out; those are managed only through the account and the app.
Two different passwords
- Spectrum username and password open your account and the app. If you lost them, Spectrum recovers them online.
- WiFi network password connects your devices. The original one is on the sticker on the bottom or side of the router, or in your installation guide.
Using your own router with Spectrum
If you connect your own router behind the Spectrum modem, Spectrum’s account tools do not manage it. Log in to it at its own address and with its own brand defaults: see the brand list and our guide to a router that does not connect to the modem.
