So you’re trying to log into your Tangerine modem and hit a wall? Don’t sweat it—I’ve got your back. Whether you’re looking to tweak your Wi-Fi name, update your password, or just poke around the settings, logging in is actually super simple… once you know how to do it. Let’s walk through it together.
How to Login to Your Tangerine Modem
Alright, here’s the deal. Just follow these steps and you’ll be inside your modem’s settings in less than 2 minutes:
- Connect to the Network
First things first—you gotta be connected to your Tangerine network. Use Wi-Fi or plug in via Ethernet. Just make sure you’re on the same network the modem is dishing out. - Open a Web Browser
Fire up Chrome, Firefox, Safari—whatever you’re into. - Enter the IP Address
In the address bar, type one of the following common default IPs:192.168.1.1
192.168.0.1
10.1.1.1
(used by some Tangerine models)
Then hit Enter.
- Login Using Default Credentials
If it’s your first time logging in (or you haven’t changed it), use these:- Username: admin
- Password: admin or
password
Can’t get in? Check the sticker on the modem—it usually has the exact login printed there.
Default Tangerine Modem IP, Username & Password
IP Address | Username | Password |
---|---|---|
192.168.1.1 | admin | admin |
10.1.1.1 | admin | password |
Note: These are defaults. If they don’t work, someone probably changed them.
Forgot Your Modem Login?
Happens to the best of us, right? If you can’t remember your login, your best bet is to reset the modem.
To reset:
- Look for the reset button (usually a tiny hole).
- Grab a paperclip and press it in for 10–15 seconds.
- Wait for the modem to reboot. It’ll go back to factory settings.
What Can You Do After Logging In?
Once you’re in, you’ve got control! Here’s what you can mess with:
- Change your Wi-Fi name (SSID)
- Set a stronger Wi-Fi password
- Configure parental controls
- Check who’s connected to your network
- Open ports for gaming or remote work
Basically, you’re the boss of your network now.
Quick Tips to Stay Secure
Now that you’ve logged in, don’t just leave things on default. Make these quick changes:
- Change the admin password
Default credentials are hacker bait. - Update your Wi-Fi password
Something stronger than “12345678”, please! - Turn off WPS if you don’t use it
It’s a security risk if left on.
Final Thoughts
See? That wasn’t so bad. Once you know the login IP and credentials, getting into your Tangerine modem is a breeze. And now that you’ve got access, you can truly take charge of your network.
