Change the Netis router’s login password
Changing the default login on your Netis router takes about two minutes and stops other people on your network from opening its settings. This guide shows how to change the Netis router password from a phone or computer, which default logins to try if yours is rejected, and what to do if you’re locked out.
Open 192.168.1.1 in your browser, log in (the common default is admin / admin), click Advanced, go to System → Password, enter the old and new login details, save, and restart the router.
Before you start
- Your phone or computer must be connected to the Netis router (Wi-Fi or LAN cable).
- This changes the router admin login, not the Wi-Fi password. Wi-Fi security is set separately under the Wireless menu.
- Menu names and default logins can differ by model and firmware version. The label on the router usually shows its address and login.

Default Netis router username and password
If you never changed the login, or you’re not sure what it is, these are combinations commonly used on Netis routers. Try them one at a time:
| Username | Password |
|---|---|
admin | admin |
admin | password |
guest | guest |
These are not guaranteed for every model. Your ISP may also have set its own login on the router.
