Title: DIR-600L admin login problems
Post by: HaggisHunter on April 07, 2021, 09:31:43 AM
I  have a problem with an old DIR-600L - cannot login to its webpage with any user/password I can find either on the bottom of the router or online.
I can connect to the login page both by ethernet and by WiFi.

SSID is vi-5f9E
H/W Ver.: A1
F/W Ver.: 1.15VI
Default IP is 192.168.36.1

That's as far as I can get - any username or password combo entered is rejected. Several resets have done nothing to help.
I have also tried logging in with 192.168.0.1 as the router IP but cannot connect to the login page

Would really appreciate any fresh ideas!

Hello, you should restart the router. In that model right next to one of the antennas there is a small hole, you can press it with a paper clip, for about 15 sec. It will return to its default values

If you re-read my post you will see that I have already done this several times.  The reset button is NOT helping in this case. I'm hoping someone on this forum knows of a "fail-safe" backdoor into the router's webpage.

Having said that, I do want to thank you for trying to help!

So resetting the router for 10 seconds then release the reset button and a wired PC connected to the Router with the WAN port disconnected from the modem, using IE11 or FireFox, does the PC get a IP address in the 192.168.0.someting range? Can you access the routers web page at 192.168.0.1?
