🔍 Dahua Router Login IP Address
First thing’s first: You need the gateway IP address to access the login panel.
Default Dahua Router IP: 192.168.1.108
(Yes, that little number is the key to the whole thing!)
So just pop that into your browser’s address bar like this:
http://192.168.1.108
👉 Pro tip: Make sure you’re connected to the Dahua router’s Wi-Fi or LAN—otherwise, this ain’t gonna work.
🔐 Default Username & Password for Dahua Routers
Now comes the login part. If you’ve never changed the credentials, try the following defaults:
Username | Password |
---|---|
admin | admin |
admin | 123456 |
⚠️ If those don’t work, someone might’ve changed them. In that case, you’ll need to reset the router (we’ll cover that in a sec).
🛠️ Login Steps (Simple & Quick)
- Connect to the Dahua router network (Wi-Fi or LAN).
- Open any browser and enter:
http://192.168.1.108
- Type in the username and password (try the defaults above).
- Boom—you’re in! Now you can tweak your settings, update firmware, or change the Wi-Fi name/password.
🔄 Forgot Your Login? Here’s the Reset Trick
If the login credentials aren’t working and you’ve tried everything, here’s the nuclear option:
Hard Reset Steps:
- Find the reset button at the back of your router (usually a tiny hole).
- Grab a pin or paperclip.
- Press and hold it for 10-15 seconds.
- Wait for the router to reboot. It’ll reset to factory settings.
Now you can log in using the default credentials again. Crisis averted. 🎉
🔧 Pro Tips for Better Performance
- Change your Wi-Fi name (SSID) to something unique (like “GetYourOwnNet” 😏).
- Use a strong password—no more “12345678”.
- Check for firmware updates in the settings—it helps with security & speed.
