What should I do if I forget my router's Wi-Fi password?

Remember the router's login password, and check the Wi-Fi password method

Method 1: Through the HUAWEI AI Life app

1. Connect your phone to the router's Wi-Fi network.
2. Open the HUAWEI AI Life app on your phone, and go to Network > Wi-Fi management.
3. Go to Wi-Fi , and touch the icon next to Wi-Fi password to view your current Wi-Fi password.

Method 2: Through the web-based management page on your computer

1. Connect your computer to your router's Wi-Fi network. You can also connect your computer to the LAN port on your router using an Ethernet cable.
2. Open your Internet browser. Enter the default IP address in your browser's address bar and log in to your router's web-based management page (check the nameplate on the router for the default IP address).

   For routers that feature self-adaptive ports, you do not need to distinguish between WAN and LAN ports.

3. Click My Wi-Fi, then click the icon next to Wi-Fi network password to view your current Wi-Fi password.

Forgot the router password, how to set Wi-Fi password

• If you forget both the router's login password and Wi-Fi password, you can restore your router to its factory settings： Use a pin to press the Reset button （WPS/RESET）on your router for approximately 8 seconds until the indicator turns off, then follow the instructions in the user manual to reset the router.
   

  • After you restore your router to its factory settings, all existing configurations will be lost. You will need to configure your router again before you can access the Internet.
  • You cannot retrieve the forgotten Wi-Fi password, so you can only restore the factory settings and set the Wi-Fi password again.
