If the Optus page will not open
- The page 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 always 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.
