We have 2 Generic models in our database: the 54m and HPR4C0. Most of them use 192.168.123.254 as the default IP address, and the default login is admin / admin. This page has the default IP address and login for each model we know of.

How to Log In to a Generic Router

  1. Connect a computer or phone to the router, with a network cable or over WiFi.
  2. Type http://192.168.123.254 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 / admin is the most common).

Default Generic IP Addresses

Generic Model IP Address
54m 192.168.16.1
HPR4C0 192.168.123.254

Default Generic Username and Password

Generic Model Username Password
54m admin admin
HPR4C0 blank admin

Other logins we have seen on Generic models: blank / admin.

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.
