About Skinny

Skinny, part of Spark, supplies the Skinny Smart Modem.

Reaching the login page

The admin page on most Skinny 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.

Log in with admin and admin. The modem then makes you set a stronger password: at least 8 characters with a capital letter, a number and a symbol.

If the Skinny 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.

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.
