Did you forget the username and password for your Linksys wireless router? Chances are good that the username and password for the router have not been changed from their defaults. (People, for one reason or another, seldom change the default login information for wireless routers. Why? I have no idea.) Here are some of the defaults used on various Linksys routers. Give them a try:
| Linksys Router Model | Username | Password | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| E1000 | (none) | admin | ||
| E2000 | admin | admin | ||
| E2100L | admin | admin | ||
| E3000 | admin | admin | ||

Notice that most of the default usernames and passwords are consistent—there is no username and the password is admin. This is not the case for all models, however. In some cases the username and password are both admin.
Of course, you need to connect to the router’s web interface before you can login. See our article on figuring out the wireless router’s IP address for more information.
