Okay, real talk—logging into your BAIT modem doesn’t have to be a pain. Whether you’re trying to change your Wi-Fi name, upgrade your password game, or just see what’s going on inside your modem… this is where it starts.
Let me walk you through it—step-by-step, no tech degree needed.
🚪 How to Login to Your BAIT Modem (Step-by-Step)
1. Connect to Your Modem First
Yep, you need to be connected to your BAIT network. You can do that:
- Through Wi-Fi
 - Or plug in directly with an Ethernet cable
 
Either works. Just make sure you’re in.
2. Open a Web Browser and Type the IP Address
In your browser’s address bar (again, NOT the search bar), type:
192.168.1.1- or 
192.168.0.1(try both if you’re unsure) 
Then hit Enter.
⚠️ Not loading? Double-check you’re actually connected to the modem’s network.
3. Use the Default Username & Password
Once that login page pops up, enter your credentials:
- Username: 
admin - Password: 
adminorpassword 

If those don’t work, peek at the back of the modem—there’s usually a sticker with the exact login info.
💡 Change Wi-Fi Name & Password (Because “BAIT123” Ain’t It 😅)
Time to personalize your Wi-Fi:
- Go to Wireless Settings or Wi-Fi Configuration
 - Find the SSID field – that’s your Wi-Fi name
 - Enter your new Wi-Fi password under “Pre-Shared Key” or “WPA Key”
 - Click Apply or Save Settings
 
Boom. You’ve got a custom network.
🧠 Pro tip: Mix letters, numbers, and symbols in your password to keep it secure.
🔁 Forgot the Login? Here’s How to Reset
No worries—if you can’t get in, just reset the modem:
- Look for a tiny reset hole (usually at the back)
 - Use a pin or paperclip and hold it in for 10–15 seconds
 - The modem will restart and go back to factory settings
 
After that, you can log in again using the default IP and password.

🔐 Quick Security Tips (Don’t Skip These!)
Once you’re in, here’s what you should do:
- Change the admin login password
 - Use WPA2 or WPA3 encryption

📶 The more locked-down your network is, the less likely you are to get random devices leeching off your signal!
