NETGEAR WGR101 Default Password

Looking for the NETGEAR WGR101 default password? You probably have little reason to access your router on a regular basis so don't feel too bad if you've forgotten the WGR101 default password.

However, when you're troubleshooting a network problem and need to get in to the device, the WGR101 default password suddenly becomes very important.

For most versions of the NETGEAR WGR101, the default password is password. As with most passwords, the WGR101 default password is case sensitive.

In addition to the WGR101 default password, you can also see the WGR101 default username and WGR101 default IP address in the table below.

Note: The NETGEAR WGR101 default password may be different for certain hardware or firmware versions.

If I have that information, I'll include the exact WGR101 version number along with the correct default password. You can usually find your NETGEAR WGR101 version number on the bottom of the router.

Be sure to change the default router password on your WGR101 to something more secure as soon as you're in. Then use a free password manager so you'll never forget your new WGR101 password.
