Community Fibre Router Login
Community Fibre, a London-based ISP, provides high-speed fiber broadband, typically supplying customers with Linksys Velop mesh systems or Technicolor gateways. Accessing the router settings allows management of your Wi-Fi network.
How to Login to Community Fibre Router
Managing your Community Fibre network usually involves either a web interface or a dedicated mobile app, depending on the router model provided (commonly Linksys Velop or Technicolor).
For web access, the typical IP address is 192.168.1.1. Connect to your network and enter this into your browser.
- Linksys Velop: While 192.168.1.1 might bring up a status page, full management is primarily done via the Linksys App (iOS/Android). Initial setup requires the app. The admin password for web access (if needed for advanced settings) is usually the unique password printed on the sticker of the primary Velop node.
- Technicolor Gateways: Access via 192.168.1.1. Login likely requires a username (e.g., 'admin' or blank) and a unique password found on the device sticker.
Always check the sticker on your main router/node for specific access details (IP, default password). Using the app (for Linksys) or a wired connection (for Technicolor) is recommended.
- Connect your device to your Community Fibre network via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet cable to the main router/node.
- Open a web browser.
- Enter the default gateway IP address. For many Community Fibre setups (especially Linksys Velop primary nodes or Technicolor gateways), this is 'http://192.168.1.1'.
- You may be prompted for a password (Linksys often uses the unique password on the main node's sticker) or username/password (Technicolor might use 'admin' and a unique password from sticker).
- Alternatively, for Linksys Velop systems, using the Linksys mobile app is the primary method for setup and management.

Troubleshooting Issues with Community Fibre Router
Issues accessing your Community Fibre router settings?
- Check Router Model: Are you using Linksys Velop or a Technicolor gateway? Management methods differ.
- Use Linksys App (Velop): For Velop systems, ensure you have the Linksys app installed and are logged into your Linksys account. Most settings are managed here.
- Confirm IP Address (Web): If using web access (192.168.1.1), ensure you typed it correctly.
- Verify Connection: Make sure your device is connected to the Community Fibre network (Wi-Fi or Ethernet to the primary node/gateway).
- Accurate Password (Web): For web login, use the unique password from the sticker on the primary node (Linksys) or gateway (Technicolor). Check case sensitivity. Technicolor might need a username ('admin'?) too.
- Browser Issues (Web): Clear cache/cookies, try incognito, or use a different browser.
- Reboot System: Restart your main router/node (and ONT if separate). Unplug power, wait 60 secs, plug back in. Wait several minutes. For Velop, reboot nodes starting from the primary.
- Factory Reset (Caution): If passwords are lost/unknown. For Velop, use the reset button on the node (hold 10-15 secs); requires complete reconfiguration via the app. For Technicolor, use its reset button; requires reconfiguration, possibly contacting support. Always contact Community Fibre support before resetting if unsure.
