The Linksys Smart WiFi is a free service bundled with the Linksys Smart WiFi Routers. After setting up your router, you can easily access it wherever there is an internet connection by using a Linksys cloud account and associating your router to it.

To avoid any issues with accessing the router using your Linksys cloud account, make sure that the router’s 
firmware is updated. You may also upgrade a Linksys Smart WiFi Router's firmware manually. 

You can access your Linksys Smart WiFi using any of the following:


Local Access
Remote Access

Your Linksys Smart WiFi is accessible via web browsers in Windows®, Mac®, and iPad®. Another option is to access it through a mobile device via the Linksys app. Here are the Linksys Smart WiFi system requirements
 


 Local Access

 

Follow the steps below to learn how to access your router locally.

 

 

1 2 3
Launch a web browser.

 

Enter your router’s default IP address, 192.168.1.1 or http://myrouter.local/ then press [Enter].


If the IP address does not work, check your router's IP address.
If you encounter a bad gateway error, 
try these troubleshooting steps.

Enter your Router Password and click Sign In.

 

The default administrator password of an unconfigured router is admin. If you have changed it, enter the new password instead.

 

QUICK TIPS

 

  • If you haven’t created, activated, or associated an account with your router, these are the things you need to do.
  • If you experience multiple failed login attempts, it may result in the temporary suspension of your account. If you cannot remember your password, you have the option to perform a password reset.


The Linksys Smart WiFi home page will now appear. You can now access and configure everything under the Smart WiFi Tools and Router Settings.
