http://Pocket.wifi

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

    Typing Pocket.wifi into a search engine will not work. Always enter it directly into the browser's address bar.

  • Avoid adding 'www' or 'https'

    Pocket.wifi does not support 'www' or 'https'. Enter it as-is without any prefixes or protocols.

What is Pocket.wifi?

// briefing

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

Compared to a numeric IP address, Pocket.wifi is easier to remember and is provided by the manufacturer as a convenient alternative for accessing the settings page.

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