Hi.

I take it you're trying to log into your router's admin interface? Your user name should be Admin and the password should be Password.

It is common to use no user name, and make the password be password or admin, or make the user name be admin and leave the password blank, or make both user name and password be admin. I've even seen the user name be user and the password be password.

If none of these works, someone has changed yours to non default. If you can't find out what that is, then you can restore your router back to factory defaults, and that should return your password and user to what the router says it is on the underside of the device. Note that obviously, factory resetting will remove any pre-existing configuration that has already been done. Not knowing how Time Warner handles connections, it is possible you will undo someone's previous configuration that made your router work properly with TW and that resetting it will then leave you having to set it up again just to get internet access once again. Just a warning there. If you were the one who set it up or you have access to who ever it was that did, then you should be good to go on the reset button. That is usually on the back of the router among the ports there, and is generally a small round hole into which you push a straightened paperclip or perhaps a toothpick. You may have to hold it for 20 seconds or so to initiate a factory reset.

BTW, make sure your caps lock isn't on when trying to log into the admin interface. I've been there and done that

Hi,
I would like to ask the person who just provided the info on the accessible 
router, did they just purchase it recently?
I had purchased same brand in Jan. 2014, it had no software either, it seems 
simple enough as far as navigating on screen info, however I cannot figure what 
my PW is. I tried to enter the info on the box, but it didn’t accept it. I had 
a friend look on bottom of this router last Friday, it just says very generic 
info, Admin and password is just “password” so I am clueless.
However, it is plugged to the TW modem and it shows in the list as, Netgear 53, 
but I honestly do not know for sure if it’s working.
Did you purchase yours from Staples?

Thanks,

Trish

A complex system that does not work is invariably found to have evolved from
a simpler system that worked perfectly.

Hi:

Purchase the Netgear 4500 router.  It has to be one of the easiest routers I
have ever installed. Plug and play and I was surprised to find out it comes
without a software CD.  The web interface is accessible and that's how you
set it up.

Hi all,

I have a Linksys a6500 at home, it is an smart wifi router,and I am getting
some problems with the web interface of this router. I need a good routher
that allows to connect at least 15 wifi devices multi tasking, , dual band,
and with an UI accessible. It is the most important thing for me, I am not
able to modify the settings in my routehr due to the accessibility problems.

Any advice?
