Pix-Link Router Login
Pix-Link offers various networking devices, including routers and WiFi extenders/repeaters. This guide focuses on accessing the configuration interface for Pix-Link devices.
How to Login to Pix-Link Router
Accessing your Pix-Link device settings is key to configuring or extending your network. Pix-Link devices, especially extenders, frequently use 192.168.10.1 as their default management IP address. Some router models might use 192.168.1.1 or a local domain like ap.setup.
Always refer to the quick start guide or manual that came with your specific Pix-Link product, as the correct address and default credentials ('admin'/'admin' is very common) should be listed there. Sometimes this information is also printed on a sticker on the device itself.
For setting up an extender, you might initially connect directly to the extender's own temporary WiFi network (e.g., 'PIX-LINK_XXXX'). After setup, you typically access it via the same IP but while connected to your main home network.
- Connect your device to the Pix-Link network (either the router's WiFi/LAN or the extender's network).
- Open a web browser and enter the default IP address: often 'http://192.168.10.1', '192.168.1.1', or sometimes a web address like 'ap.setup'. Check your device manual.
- Enter the default username and password, commonly 'admin' for both.
- Click 'Login' or 'Sign In' to access the Pix-Link settings menu.

Troubleshooting Issues with Pix-Link Router
If you're unable to log into your Pix-Link device, try these troubleshooting methods:
- Check IP/Web Address: Verify you're using the correct address (192.168.10.1, 192.168.1.1, ap.setup, or check manual).
- Network Connection: Ensure you're connected to the correct Pix-Link network (router's main network or extender's setup network/main network). Use an Ethernet cable if possible for initial router setup.
- Correct Credentials: The most common login is 'admin'/'admin'. Double-check case sensitivity.
- Extender Mode: If it's an extender that's already configured, it might get an IP from your main router. You might need software like 'Advanced IP Scanner' to find its current IP address if 192.168.10.1 doesn't work.
- Browser Issues: Clear your browser's cache or use a private/incognito window.
- Device Restart: Unplug the Pix-Link device, wait 30 seconds, plug it back in, and wait for it to boot.
- Factory Reset: Locate the reset button/pinhole. Press and hold it for 10-15 seconds until the lights indicate a reset. Use the default credentials afterwards. This is often necessary if you forget a changed password or the device becomes unresponsive.
Pix-Link Router setup
After gaining access to the Pix-Link interface, focus on these setup steps:
- Change Admin Login: Secure your device by setting a new password for the 'admin' account.
- Configure Mode (If Extender): Select the correct operating mode (Repeater, AP, Router) based on your needs.
- Connect to Main WiFi (If Extender): In Repeater mode, scan for and connect to your existing home WiFi network, entering its password.
- Set Up WiFi Network (Router/AP Mode): Define the SSID (network name) and choose a strong WPA2/WPA3 password for the network broadcast by the Pix-Link device.
- Match or Create SSID (Extender): Choose whether the extender uses the same SSID as your main router or creates a new one (e.g., YourNetwork_EXT).
- Check for Firmware Updates: Look for an option to update the device's firmware if available on the Pix-Link website.
- Adjust LAN Settings (Optional): Modify the device's own IP address if needed to avoid conflicts (advanced).
- Save and Reboot: Apply and save your changes; the device will likely need to reboot.
