Find Your Calix GS2020E Router IP Address
Before you can log in to your Calix GS2020E router, you need to figure out it's internal IP address.
| Known GS2020E IP Addresses |
|---|
| 192.168.1.1 |
You may have to try using a few different IP addresses from the list above. Just pick one and then follow the rest of this guide.
If later on in this guide you do not find your router using the IP address that you pick, then you can try different IP addresses until you get logged in. I will not hurt anything to try different IP addresses.
If, after trying all of the above IP addresses, you still cannot find your router, then you can try one of the following steps:
- Follow our guide called Find Your Router's Internal IP Address.
- Download and install our free Router Detector software.
Choose an internal IP Address using one of the above methods and then try to login to your router.
