About Westell

Westell built DSL modems and gateways for US telcos through the 2000s. The Westell records here run across the Wirespeed line.

Reaching the login page

The admin page on most Westell units answers at http://192.168.1.1. 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 Westell defaults look like

admin is the username on 4 of the 5 entries. One model shipped with no password at all. Where one is set, password comes up most often, on 2 entries.

If the Westell 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.
