Netlink Router Login
Netlink manufactures GPON Optical Network Terminals (ONT/ONU) commonly used by various Fiber ISPs. This guide helps you access your Netlink device's admin interface.
How to Login to Netlink Router
Accessing your Netlink GPON ONT/ONU settings allows you to manage WiFi (if it's a combined unit), check optical signal status, and view network configurations set by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
The standard default IP address for most Netlink ONTs is 192.168.1.1. Ensure your device is connected to the Netlink device's network before navigating to this address.
Default login credentials for Netlink devices often vary depending on ISP requirements or the specific model:
- Standard User: 'admin' / 'admin', 'useradmin' / 'useradmin'
- Admin Level: 'telecomadmin' / 'admintelecom', 'admin' / 'password'
- Unique Password: Sometimes 'admin' / '[last few digits of MAC address]'
Always check the sticker on the bottom or back of your Netlink device for the most accurate default login information provided by your ISP or Netlink.
- Connect your computer to the Netlink ONT/router via WiFi (if applicable) or Ethernet.
- Open a web browser.
- Enter the default IP address 'http://192.168.1.1' into the address bar.
- Input the username and password. Common combinations include: 'admin'/'admin', 'admin'/'password', 'useradmin'/'useradmin', 'telecomadmin'/'admintelecom', 'admin'/'[last 8 MAC digits]'. Check the label.
- Click 'Login'.

Troubleshooting Issues with Netlink Router
Issues logging into your Netlink ONT/router? Try these fixes:
- Verify Connection: Ensure you are connected directly to the Netlink device, preferably via an Ethernet cable for initial access.
- Correct IP Address: Double-check you are using '192.168.1.1'. Ensure no typos.
- Check Credentials: Try common pairs: 'admin'/'admin', 'useradmin'/'useradmin', 'telecomadmin'/'admintelecom', 'admin'/'password'. Carefully check the device label for specific usernames/passwords or unique password patterns (like using MAC digits). Case-sensitive.
- Browser Issues: Clear browser cache/cookies or use an incognito/private window. Try a different browser.
- Device Reboot: Restart the Netlink ONT. Unplug the power, wait 30-60 seconds, plug it back in, and allow time for it to sync (lights to stabilize).
- Factory Reset: If locked out due to a forgotten custom password, use the reset button (hold 10-15 secs). This restores defaults (use label credentials) but will likely erase ISP configuration (PPPoE/VLAN). Contact your ISP support before doing this, as reconfiguration might be needed.
- Contact ISP Support: Your ISP manages the primary configuration. Contact them if you have persistent login issues or need settings changed.
Netlink Router setup
Configuration options available after logging into a Netlink ONT depend on the user level and ISP restrictions:
- Change User Password: If logged in as 'useradmin' or similar, you can usually change that specific user's password. Higher-level passwords ('telecomadmin') might be restricted.
- Configure WiFi (if applicable): If your Netlink ONT includes WiFi router functionality, you can set the SSID and WPA2/WPA3 password under Wireless/WLAN settings.
- Check WAN Status: View the status of the internet connection (PPPoE/DHCP, IP address, VLAN ID). Configuration is usually locked by the ISP.
- Check Optical Power: View PON status, including Rx/Tx optical signal levels, crucial for diagnosing fiber connection issues.
- Basic LAN Settings: View or potentially modify LAN IP address and DHCP server settings (usually best left at default).
- Review Security Logs: Check system or security logs if available.
- Firmware Version: View the current firmware version (updates usually pushed by ISP).
