Host

Instead of a numeric IP address, some routers by Telstra use M.home as a memorable web address for the admin panel. Enter it in your browser to access the login page.

M.home

// host overview

M.home is the local hostname of a Telstra router. It only opens the router's admin page when accessed from a device connected to its network.

Typing M.home relies on local DNS resolution, while entering 192.168.1.1 directly accesses the router via its IP address.

Type this, not a search

// address bar

Address bar

http://M.home

  1. Use the browser address bar. A search box will look up M.home on the public internet and miss the router.
  2. Type http://M.home with no www and no https. You must be joined to this router's Wi-Fi.
  • Do not search for M.home

    Typing 'M.home' into a search engine will not work. You must enter it exactly in the browser's address bar.

  • No https or www

    M.home does not use https or www. Only type 'http://m.home' or 'm.home' in the address bar.

What is M.home?

// briefing

M.home is a local web address that gives you access to the admin panel of your Telstra router. This address only works when you are connected to the router's network — it does not resolve on the public internet.

The .local or .home suffix indicates that this is a local network address resolved by mDNS or your router's built-in DNS. It is not accessible from outside your network.

This hostname is specific to Telstra devices. Other manufacturers use different addresses — check the sticker on your router for the correct URL.

The default login credentials for devices accessible via M.home are typically username admin and password admin.
