We have 2 Spectrum models in our database: the RAC2V1A and RAC2V1K. Most of them use 192.168.1.1 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 Spectrum Router

  1. Connect a computer or phone to the router, with a network cable or over WiFi.
  2. Type http://192.168.1.1 into your browser's address bar. If nothing loads, see How To Find Your Router's IP Address.
  3. Sign in with the default username and password from the table below (admin / admin is the most common).

Default Spectrum IP Address

Spectrum Model IP Address
RAC2V1A 192.168.1.1
RAC2V1K 192.168.1.1

Default Spectrum Username and Password

Spectrum Model Username Password
RAC2V1A admin admin
RAC2V1K admin 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.
