About GIGABYTE
GIGABYTE has sold routers and access points alongside its motherboard business.
Reaching the login page
The admin page on most GIGABYTE 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 steps, and what to try when the page will not load, are in our 192.168.1.254 login guide.
What the GIGABYTE defaults look like
Every entry uses the username admin.
If the GIGABYTE password has already been changed
There is a recessed reset button on the back or underneath that needs a straightened paperclip. Hold it in for thirty seconds with the unit powered on. Let go when the lights change pattern, and give it a couple of minutes to come back up.
A reset clears more than the password. The Wi-Fi name and key go back to what is printed on the label, port forwards and firewall rules are discarded, and any static addressing is lost. Photograph the settings pages first — it takes two minutes and saves an evening.
