  • Been trying to log into my thomson router all day

    Everything I have read states that you do the following

    1. enter 192.168.1.254
    2. User = Administrator
    3. Pass = leave it blank OR enter ser #

    Not been able to access it and i dont recall changing any passwords when i set it up

    So i cant even get over stage 1 of prepping the No1 router let alone getting No2 done

    Also what is the second router?

    netgear defaults are:-

    ip address 192.168.0.1

    user admin

    password password

    Thomson routers also have a Super User logon, can't remember it off the top of my head, but if you google it.......

    I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple :D

    Seems like only way to go then is to reset the router, pencil in the reset hole in the back. Unless the user/pass are yours from Plusnet
