Hi @Ricy1664 

Glad you got it sorted.

Was a factory reset holding in the reset button on the back of the Router for around 10 to 15 seconds or was there another method involved ?

Yeah held reset button for about 30 to 45 seconds

Hey Schnapps,

How do you change the router login away from the default login of 'admin' and 'nowtv'? Have read how this is an easy route in for many hackers and how many homes in the UK are vulnerable due to their routers having default passwords.

Thanks

Hi @Francesca 

I am not sure you can change the admin part of the Hub 2 Router login details, but can change the password from nowtv to a password of your choice.

When you type 192.168.0.1 on your internet browser URL and once you have entered admin & nowtv when prompted, select the Maintenance tab, then select Set Password secondary tab where there is an option to change the Router login password from nowtv.

To be honest i have never tried it myself.

If you get stuck, hold in the reset button on the back of the Router for 10 to 15 seconds to get back to the old default setting of admin & nowtv.
