How to log in to your Mercusys router

Connect your device to the Mercusys router by cable or Wi-Fi. A cable is best if you will change Wi-Fi settings or update the firmware.
Open Firefox, Chrome or Edge and type http://mwlogin.net or http://192.168.1.1 in the address bar.
If the browser shows a privacy warning, choose Advanced, then Proceed. Mercusys explains that the router uses a self-signed certificate.
Create the admin password when asked. It must be 6 to 15 characters and is case sensitive.
Log in with that password next time. On an ADSL modem-router, use admin for both the username and the password.

Example router label: the web address, username and admin password are the lines you need to log in, and they are different from the Wi-Fi name and password — Illustration only, not a photo of a real product. The login details are usually on a label under the router.

If the Mercusys page will not open

mwlogin.net does not open: Use 192.168.1.1 instead, or log in with the Mercusys app. Both options work.
A privacy or “not secure” warning appears: This is normal on your own router. The certificate is self-signed. Choose Advanced, then Proceed. Do not do this on public Wi-Fi.
I forgot the password I created: There is no default password to fall back on, so a factory reset is needed. See the reset guide.
The page loads over HTTP but your browser forces HTTPS: Type http:// before the address, so the browser does not switch to HTTPS.

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.
