routerlogin.net

// host overview

routerlogin.net is a hostname used to access the admin interface of Netgear routers. It only works when accessed from within the local network connected to the router.

Hostname
routerlogin.net
Kind
Local name that looks public
Brand
netgear
Fallback IP
192.168.1.1

Typing routerlogin.net uses the router's DNS to resolve to the local IP address, while typing 192.168.1.1 directly bypasses DNS resolution.

Type this, not a search

// address bar

Address bar

http://routerlogin.net

  1. Use the browser address bar. A search box will look up routerlogin.net on the public internet and miss the router.
  2. Type http://routerlogin.net with no www and no https. You must be joined to this router's Wi-Fi.
  3. If the name does not open, use the numeric address 192.168.1.1 instead.
  • Do not search for routerlogin.net

    Typing routerlogin.net into a search engine will not work. You must enter it directly into the browser's address bar.

  • Avoid adding 'www' or 'https'

    Do not type 'www.routerlogin.net' or 'https://routerlogin.net'. The hostname works without these additions.

What is routerlogin.net?

// briefing

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

Although routerlogin.net looks like a regular website, it is actually a local address that your router intercepts. Your router acts as a local DNS server and redirects this address to its built-in configuration page.

If routerlogin.net does not resolve in your browser, you can use the numeric fallback address 192.168.1.1 instead. Both lead to the same admin interface.

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

The default login credentials for devices accessible via routerlogin.net are typically username admin and password password.
