Linksys is a widely used and extremely famous router brand responsible for manufacture and produce of a variety of routers used for various purposes ranging from any household Wi-Fi equipment to office area network. A Linksys router is a widely used hardware component which can be used along with a personal computer hooked on an internet connection. A router basically functions as a device that spread a a single network over a large area where each and every device functions as a part of the entire network. The Linksys router handles exchange of packets of data and information in between all the various devices connected wirelessly to it. Essentially a Linksys router can be used to convert a single network source like an Ethernet cable into a Local Area Network (LAN).
In case you are already equipped with a Linksys router, you can access the gateway admin login page for any configurations or a change in settings required in order to smoothen and enhance your network surfing experience. Follow the instructions given below to enter your administrative panel and have full access to control over your own network.
You can pick the right IP Address of Linksys from the list below and click on Admin button. If you choose right, You will be redirected to your Linksys Router Login Admin Interface.
In order to enter your admin web page, you would first need to hook up to a mother device, locate and reach your Linksys router gateway page and login using the default username and password provided. Follow the steps given below and you are good to go:
You will need any device, be it a personal computer, a Laptop, a tablet or even a smart phone to act as the mother device connected to the Linksys router to enter the admin panel. This device is known as the mother device that is the first device connected via the Linksys router to the internet and has access to all its internal modifications.
The mother device can be connected to the router by two means, namely wirelessly or through a wired connection.
Now that you have successfully connected your mother device, you are all set to move on to the next step.
Now that you have your mother box device successfully connected, your next step would be to enter the admin login of Linksys webpage.
After successfully entering the admin login page, you will be asked with an SSID or username and a password. The default username and password are generally something along the lines of 'admin' 'password' 'root' or sometimes it is just left blank entirely.
In order to find out your router’s default username and password, check the backside of the Linksys router body, or, the packaging it came it since it is usually always present there. If you still cannot find it, try a quick web search along with the model name of your Linksys router. This will give you your username and password. On entering the correct SSID and password, the admin page will open up. Now you easily change or regulate all your network settings.
One of the first things you should attempt after a successful log in is to change your login password. Since the default login password and username is easily and readily available to anyone with access to the Linksys router directly ar anyone who knows the router model and brand name, it is very easy for any foreign unwanted personnel to infiltrate into your home router network and either make changes to its settings or to arbitrarily change the password of your Linksys router, barring your access to your own network.
To avoid this, immediately after a successful login, you need to change the default password into something difficult to crack, including capital cases and special characters. Follow the steps given below in order to change the password to your Linksys router login:
Always try to remember the password you have provided. Also, do not forget to select Enable Password Recovery option, in case if you do forget it later, you can easily re-obtain it.

A router is a rectangular shaped piece of network hardware with usually comes with two or more antenna like projections. Various companies like Linksys, TP-Link, D-Link, Asus etc. are some of the most widely known and used router brands. In its basic sense, a router essentially connects a local area network to the internet. Now a days, the transport of information across the internet usually occurs from router to router, until it finally reaches its intended destination.
A Linksys router acts as the centre of the network that oversees and regulates the exchange and transport of data from one system to another. Data usually travels in the form of small packets and the router determines from where a packet originates and its intended destination.
Usually, the most common places where we can see routers are residential and small office networks. The Local Area Network formed by a router that is connected wirelessly is usually known as a Wi-Fi. This has led to a common misconception of the terms Wi-Fi and router. A Wi-Fi thus refers to a common connection to the internet, but obviously, a stable network connection has to be already active for a Wi-Fi to exist. A Linksys router on the other hand has direct connection to the internet, usually via an Ethernet or fibre optic cable and allows other devices to connect through it to the internet, thus giving rise to a Wi-Fi network. For a basic internet package the cost lies around about 50 to 100 dollars a month. Some packages come even cheaper than that. This coupled with factors like presence of internet service providers in even the most remote locations and the high availability of cheap routers owing to online marketing has transformed router based Wi-Fi networks from a novelty feature of high end businesses and offices to a household every day necessity. This popularity and easy availability has helped spread stable internet connection to almost any corner of the world and routers have played an integral role in it.
Linksys produce and manufacture powerful and robust routers which are made with high end equipments to provide the user the best service at the lowest possible cost. Linksys Routers are known to be easily hackable and anyone can enter unnoticed if proper security measures are not followed. This is why it is always a good idea to update your pass word regularly and never leaving any firmware or antivirus update patches pending because these greatly aid in solidifying the security, privacy and authenticity of any home based network systems and protect the member devices from uninvited guests.
