SMC Default Router Passwords
This page lists 17 confirmed default credentials for SMC equipment, covering 15 models. The pairing you are most likely to need is admin with smcadmin.
Entries are reachable over http and multi. 12 of these entries use a protocol that sends the password in clear text, so use them on a trusted network and change the password once you are in.

About SMC
SMC Networks built the Barricade line of routers and supplied cable gateways to operators including Comcast. The SMC records here run across the SMCWBR- and Barricade lines.
Reaching the login page
The admin page on most SMC units answers at http://192.168.2.1. 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.
What the SMC defaults look like
admin is the username on 6 of the 17 entries. 6 of them ask for no username at all. One model shipped with no password at all.
Where one is set, smcadmin comes up most often, on 10 entries. 12 of them are reached over a protocol that puts the password on the wire in clear text, so work from a machine on the same wired network rather than across the internet, and change the password once you are in.
If the SMC 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.
