Be it an Asus router or a router from any other brand, when you bring it home for the very first time, it is important that you change the Asus router login details. This will ensure that nobody could gain unauthorized access to your router and make changes to it without your knowledge. To change your router's login password, you can either refer to the user manual that came with your router or refer to the instructional guidelines that we are going to discuss in this blog.
However, in order to change the Asus router login password, you need to access your account first and then proceed with the password-changing process. If you have forgotten the current login details of your router, then you need to first reset it to the default settings and then change the password.
If you are able to access your Asus router settings, then you can apply the steps that I am going to discuss below.
