About EE
EE supplies Smart Hub routers with its home broadband, including the Smart Hub 7 Pro, 7 Plus and 6 Plus.
Reaching the login page
The admin page on most EE units answers at http://192.168.1.254. If that address does not load, the router is whatever your computer lists as its default gateway — ipconfig on Windows or ipconfig getoption en0 router on a Mac will tell you.
The admin password for Hub Manager is on the card on the back of the hub. The same card carries the Wi-Fi name and password, which are different.
Where EE prints the admin password
Forgotten the admin password
EE says to follow the forgotten-password steps inside Hub Manager itself. You can also change the admin password in the EE app. If neither works, a factory reset brings back the one on the card.
Other UK broadband providers
If the EE password has already been changed
Press the Factory Reset button on the back for 5 seconds, or 20 seconds if it is a pinhole (use a paperclip). It has worked when the lights turn aqua or blue, which can take up to 5 minutes; the Wi-Fi name and password go back to the card.
The catch with an ISP-supplied unit is that a reset also clears the broadband credentials, and on some lines the router will not reconnect until those are re-entered. Find them before you press anything, or be ready to ring the provider.
