Types of Logins
Separate types of logins serve different purposes. It is important that you understand the difference so that you know
which login to use when.
Several types of logins are associated with the router:
•
ISP login. The login that your ISP gave you logs you in to your Internet service. Your service provider gave you
this login information in a letter or some other way. If you cannot find this login information, contact your service
provider.
•
WiFi network key or password. Your router is preset with a unique WiFi network name (SSID) and password
for WiFi access. This information is on the router label.
•
Router login. This logs you in to the router interface from a web browser as admin.
