Here's how to log in to a ZyXEL router or gateway. That includes ISP-supplied models like the CenturyLink C1100Z and C3000Z.

Step 1: Connect

Join the router's WiFi, or plug a network cable into one of its LAN ports. The default WiFi name and key are on the label.

Step 2: Open the Login Page

Type http://192.168.1.1 into your browser's address bar and press Enter. Some ZyXEL models use 192.168.1.254, 192.168.0.1 or 10.0.0.138. NBG and Armor routers also answer at http://myrouter.local. Check your model on the ZyXEL IP address page.

Step 3: Sign In

router login screen — The login screen of the ZyXEL P-660HN-T1H.

Older ZyXEL gateways (P-660 and similar): enter the password 1234. If there's a username box, use admin. You'll be asked to change the password straight away. You can click Ignore to keep it.
Newer ZyXEL gateways (VMG, EMG, C1100Z): the username is admin and the password is the Admin Password on the label. It isn't the WiFi key.
NBG / Armor routers: username admin, password 1234, or the password you set in the app.

The full list is on the ZyXEL passwords page.

Step 4: You're In

Newer models show the Network Map. Older ones ask you to choose Go to Wizard setup or Go to Advanced setup. Choose Advanced to reach all the settings.

From here you can change the IP address.

ZyXEL Login Problems

192.168.1.1 doesn't load. Make sure you're connected to the ZyXEL router. If it's behind another router (or in bridge mode), plug a computer straight into it.

The password is wrong. Try 1234, then the label password, then admin. ISPs often change the defaults. Ask your ISP, or reset the router.

The account is locked. After a few failed logins, ZyXEL routers block logins for a few minutes. Wait, then try again.

Some menus are missing. Some ISP firmware gives the admin account only part of the settings, and keeps a separate supervisor account for the ISP.
