If the EE page will not open

I lost the admin card: If you changed the admin password and forgot it, a factory reset restores the one on the card. A reset erases your settings.
192.168.1.254 does not load: Check you are connected to this router, not mobile data or another Wi-Fi. If your computer’s gateway shows a different address, use the router IP finder.
A search page opens instead of the router: Type http:// before the address, and type it in the address bar, not the search box.
Wrong username or password: The admin password is not your Wi-Fi password. Check the label on the router. If you changed it and forgot it, see the reset guide.
Two routers on the same address: If your own router sits behind an ISP box that uses the same range, see own router behind an ISP router.

How to keep your router secure

Change the default admin password and use a long one that you do not use anywhere else.
Keep the router firmware up to date.
Turn off remote management unless you really need it.
Use WPA2 or WPA3 for Wi-Fi.
