We have 3 Fortinet models in our database: the FortiGate 60D, FortiGate-60C and FortiWiFi 60C. Most of them use 192.168.1.99 as the default IP address, and the default login is admin / blank. This page has the default IP address and login for each model we know of.

How to Log In to a Fortinet Router

  1. Connect a computer or phone to the router, with a network cable or over WiFi.
  2. Type http://192.168.1.99 into your browser's address bar. If nothing loads, try the other addresses in the table below.
  3. Sign in with the default username and password from the table below (admin / blank is the most common).

Default Fortinet IP Addresses

Fortinet Model IP Address
FortiGate 60D 192.168.0.1
FortiGate-60C 192.168.1.99
FortiWiFi 60C 192.168.1.99

Default Fortinet Username and Password

Fortinet Model Username Password
FortiGate 60D pakedge pakedgef
FortiGate-60C admin blank
FortiWiFi 60C admin blank

Other logins we have seen on Fortinet models: pakedge / pakedgef.

If the Default Login Doesn't Work

Someone has probably changed the password. Check the label on the router, then factory reset it: with the router on, hold the Reset button (often a pinhole, so use a paperclip) for about 10 to 30 seconds, then let go. That puts back the default login above, and also erases your WiFi and Internet settings. See How To Reset Your Router.
