Password
— no default —

You create this password the first time you set up the router. If you never changed it, factory-reset and set a new one.

This tri-band mesh forces you to create your own admin password on first login — there is no admin/admin default. Account name defaults to 'admin'.

Factory reset

During first setup (ASUS Router app or Quick Internet Setup) you create your own admin login and password — nothing ships pre-set. To factory reset: power the node on, press and hold the RESET button 5-10 seconds until the power LED flashes, release, and wait for reboot. Re-run setup at http://router.asus.com (192.168.50.1) to define a new admin password.
