Setting up your modem for the first time? We have modem setup guides available to get you up and running in no time.

Important: We highly recommend that you change your modem / router's default username and password, including those for your WiFi network, to ensure your connection remains secure.

The factory-set WiFi username (SSID) and password will be labelled on the underside of most modems / routers.

You can view and edit the default WiFi username (SSID) / password by logging into your modem / router using the details below.

              If you've previously changed the username and / or password and forgotten it, you'll need to perform a factory reset of your modem / router and then use the default password / username above to gain access.

              Please see below for information on how to perform a factory reset.

              Before you reset your modem / router, note down your OptusNet primary username and password. 

              A factory reset can wipe any personalised modem settings that you've changed previously, including any saved WiFi network configuration, names and passwords etc.

              Factory resetting your modem / router

              A factory reset usually involves holding a recessed reset button down for a few seconds, usually located on the rear or underside of your modem / router.

              You can find factory reset steps for Optus-supplied modems in our online user guides.

              If you're using a non-Optus supplied modem, the above information may differ. For more, see Setting up your BYO modem.
