In the Asus model range there are many routers of similar design, which differ in the number of antennas, the presence of a USB input and Wi-Fi operating ranges. A convenient feature is that the configuration of various routers released under this brand is not fundamentally different. Only the set of available functions on one model or another is different.

To connect any Asus model, do not rush to plug the device into a power outlet immediately after purchase. The first step is to connect the cables correctly. Most routers from this manufacturer have 4 ports for LAN connections for computers and laptops and a separate port for connecting to the Internet. Insert the cables into the required connectors: the power cord provided by your provider into the blue port, and all wired devices into the yellow port. After this, plug the device into a power outlet, wait until it boots and the connection is established. As a rule, you can start setting up your router within 30 seconds after connecting it.

Turn the device over and among the information presented on the bottom panel, find the standard IP address of the router, login and password to enter the setup page. Just below this data is the standard name of the wireless network. If the router is 2-band (operates at frequencies of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), then you can use any of these connections.

Important! You can configure the router not only via a wired connection, but also via Wi-Fi.

Setting up a network on an Asus router

To begin setup, enter your router's IP in the program you use to browse websites. You can find the IP of your router. After the authorization request, specify the standard login and password (you can find out). The first page that will open in the interface will be “Network Map”. This provides basic connection data, information about clients and USB devices connected to Asus. You can change some of this data directly on this page, without going to specialized sections. For example, authorization parameters for a Wi-Fi network change on the “System Status” tab, in the “2.4GHz” and “5GHz” sections.

To connect your Asus Wi-Fi router to the Internet, go to the “Advanced settings -> Internet” menu. In this case, it will be useful to find the connection agreement that you concluded with the provider. It contains the necessary information. In the “Basic Settings” section, select the connection type. Any Asus model works with all common technologies that are used to access the Internet. If your provider uses non-standard technology, it may be implemented in one of the custom firmwares, which can be downloaded separately.

In the “Setting up a WAN IP address” item, select to automatically obtain an IP address or enter it manually if your provider has provided you with a static IP and it is specified in the contract. In the “Account Settings” section, enter the username and password that are used to connect to the Internet. If the provider provides additional connection data (for example, access is via VPN), indicate them in the special requirements tab.

In the same “Internet” item, on a separate tab, you can configure port forwarding. One of the features of Asus Wi-Fi routers is a large list of preset program settings for port forwarding. You can select a program in the “List of favorite games” item. All this can be done manually using the “Add/Delete” button in the lower table.

Important! Port forwarding can be useful if some applications are not working correctly. If there are no connection problems, it is recommended not to change these settings.

After debugging the connection, go to the “Local Network” menu. On the “LAN IP” tab you can change the router address. The “DHCP Server” section allows you to set a protocol for automatically assigning IP addresses to all devices. For inexperienced users, it is advisable to leave the DHCP server enabled and, if necessary, set the range of addresses that will be assigned to network devices. At the same time, the specified range should not include the address of the Wi-Fi router itself, otherwise conflicts may arise if the same IP is assigned to this device and one of the computers.

When the DHCP server is disabled, it becomes necessary to assign IP addresses manually. In this case, the MAC address is used to identify network devices. You can also set manual addressing only for certain clients by adding them to the table below. This setting will be required for the correct operation of some applications that interact with the local network.

Setting up WiFi on Asus routers

You can change Wi-Fi settings in the “Advanced settings -> Wireless network” menu. On the “General” tab, you can set separate parameters for networks operating in the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands (when using a 2-band router). If the device supports only one band - 2.4 GHz, the "Frequency band" drop-down list is not displayed. The “Hide SSID” item allows you to make your network hidden. There are no significant security improvements, since the device broadcasts its MAC address anyway.

Leave the channel mode and width unchanged, and select “Auto” in the channel list. This will allow the router to independently select the least congested frequencies within the range, in order to avoid interference that may be created by neighboring wireless routers.

It is recommended to set the authentication method to "WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK". Encryption using this protocol protects Wi-Fi from unwanted connections and data interception. In the “WPA Pre-Shared Key” field, set the password that will be used to connect to Wi-Fi in the future.

If you want to change advanced Wi-Fi settings on your Asus router, go to the Professional tab. A useful function in this menu is to turn on the radio module only at a certain time. With its help, you can limit Wi-Fi operation when it is not in use. For example, when installing a device in an office, it may be necessary to turn off the radio module during non-working hours. If you use your router at home, you can set Wi-Fi to turn off at night.

The “Set isolated access point” item allows you to restrict access of connected devices to the local network. After its activation, all devices will be able to access the Internet, but their interaction with each other will become impossible. This setting is most often used on public Wi-Fi networks to ensure the confidentiality of data stored on client devices. When setting up a home network, there is usually no such need.

You can also use a guest network to limit access to local data. Its configuration is done in the “General -> Guest Network” menu. Its operating time can be limited to a certain number of hours and minutes (section “Access time”). After the specified period has expired, the connection will be disconnected automatically. For guest networks, you can set your own encryption settings or leave them open. The SSID is also indicated separately.

Note! On most modern ASUS routers you can create up to four guest networks.

System settings of Asus routers, USB use

You can change your account information in the “Administration -> System” menu. There you can also set the behavior of the WPS button. There are On/Off options to choose from. Wi-Fi" and "Activate WPS". WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) technology allows wireless devices to connect to Wi-Fi without entering a password, within two minutes after pressing a button on the router. If you plan to use it, select the second button behavior option. Otherwise, it is more convenient to choose the first option so as not to go to the router’s control panel every time you are going to turn off Wi-Fi.

If you do not want access to the router settings from another computer, enable the “Allow only specified ip address” option. You can add your IPs to the white list using the “Specified IP address” table.

To gain access to the Internet, you need to install a device such as a router. This rule is relevant both for home use and for creating an intra-office computer network. Users often have a question: “How to log into an Asus router and configure it for comfortable work?” We suggest looking at the nuances of connecting to a router in this article.

Why do you need a router admin panel?

Models from this manufacturer support the ability to perform some manual settings in the Asus router. How to enter and why they are needed depends on the level of knowledge of the owner.

A beginner may be interested in such functions as assigning your own name and setting a password for connecting to a wireless network.

Some more advanced models support features such as using a router as a repeater, creating your own cloud storage, and a built-in program for downloading data using torrent files. These options may be of interest to experienced users and system administrators of office local networks.

Wi-Fi connection

To carry out some settings, it is enough to use a wireless connection.

To do this, on a laptop or desktop PC, nettop (if there is a built-in module), the Wi-Fi adapter is activated and available networks are searched. The first time you connect to the router, the factory default settings are used. Therefore, you need to pay attention to networks with a name containing Asus. By clicking on this name, the decision must be confirmed by clicking on the “Connect” button. For many models, the operator initially configures the ability to connect without a password.

However, if the device asks you to enter a password to establish a connection, you can try to find it on the router case. Often the login information is written on it: the IP address of the access page for the Asus router and what login and password to use. Traditionally, a pair of username and login code: admin, admin.

How to access the Asus router page? To do this, open any installed browser and enter 192.168.1.1 in the search bar. It is this address that is traditionally used by the manufacturer and is indicated on the device case and in the user manual.

When a window appears with fields for entering the user name and password, enter admin, admin. After which you are redirected to the main page of the router menu.

It is worth considering that this type of connection is not suitable for performing some settings or firmware. If there is a malfunction or interference, you may end up with a non-functioning device. Therefore, for such cases, it is necessary to study the instructions in the next paragraph.

Cable connection

It is by establishing a cable connection that experienced users perform firmware updates or some settings. Also, the speed of data exchange between the router and the end device may be reduced due to the presence of interference affecting the signal level: existing walls between the laptop and the router, the presence of neighboring Wi-Fi networks operating on the same or neighboring frequency channels, devices with active Bluetooth, and so on . Therefore, this type of connection is superior to wireless in terms of quality and speed of information transfer in the router-to-point section.

How to log into the admin panel of an Asus router when connecting the device with a cable? To do this you need to do the following:

1. Open the box and inspect the contents. Traditionally, a short connecting cable is supplied in the factory configuration. You can use it for initial setup.
2. Install one end of the cable into the Lan socket of the router. Most often they are highlighted in yellow on the router. If there are other colors, study the inscriptions on the case. The second end connects directly to the user device.
3. The operating system may ask you to confirm the connection to your home data channel. Agree.
4. An indicator for the new network will appear at the bottom of the menu bar, where the “clock” is located. The logo must not contain a yellow exclamation mark or red indicators. In this case, the connection is made correctly.
5. We also open the browser and enter the required IP address and the login-password pair from the previous section.
6. If you provide correct information, you will be redirected to the admin page.

If you subsequently need to connect a computer or laptop installed in another room, you will have to buy a longer cable.

How to access the Asus router menu from a mobile device

If you need to perform this operation using a smartphone or tablet, you must use a Wi-Fi network. A search is performed for available channels with the adapter enabled on the device. The connection occurs after entering the wireless network password.

The installed browser is opened on the user's end device and, as in other cases, the address 192.168.1.1 is entered.

Login is confirmed by entering your login and password.

Possible causes of login errors

There are 3 types of problems:

• on the provider side;
• at the stage of connecting to the router;
• with login to the device.

First of all, check the balance and the absence of restrictions on the part of the service provider. This can be done by calling the operator. Also, many companies offer mobile applications for their subscribers. When communicating with technical support, find out that there are no failures on the line or preventive maintenance.

Errors of the second type are diagnosed by the connected network indicator located next to the “clock” on the monitor. This is indicated by the presence of a yellow exclamation mark or a red cross. The easiest way is to try restarting your computer. If the problem has not been resolved, the user can independently try to fix it by using the built-in error resolution tools. To do this, just right-click on the network icon and select “Diagnostics problems” in the menu that appears. The process of finding and fixing the problem will start automatically. Most often this is enough.

If an error occurs when logging into the device, the reasons may be incorrect login and password or lack of access to the router page. How to log into the Asus router in this case? If the admin panel page does not load, check your firewall and antivirus settings. In other cases, it is worth resorting to a forced reset.

How to Reset a Device

Normally turning off the power to the router will not help with such a problem. The circuit design uses a built-in small RAM that stores all configuration parameters.

To return to factory settings, you need to inspect the device case and find the button that is labeled Reset. Press it for 10-30 seconds until the indicator lights blink, after which you can release it and wait for the device to finish loading.

How to log into the personal account of the Asus router after the process is completed?

After the manipulations, all settings are reset, including those set by the user: all passwords are canceled and standard account login parameters are set. Connect to it as you did when you first logged in. Access to the settings menu is also checked using the usual IP address.

We would like to believe that our readers will no longer have questions about how to log into an Asus router, and will only have positive impressions from getting to know the devices of this manufacturer.

Before you start setting up the router, you will need to prepare your computer for further setup, as well as clarify some of the connection parameters. How to do this is described in detail in our instructions: ! When the computer is ready, we proceed directly to setting up the router.

Connecting the router:

• We connect the router to the network using the included adapter
• We leave the operator cable “on the floor”
• We connect the router network cards with the cable supplied ( LAN 1) and computer ( Ethernet) (Rice. 1)

Wait until the lights on the router light up power diodes (PWR), active first port (LAN1) And WLAN (AIR), although it happens that the latter is disabled in the router settings.

Setting up the ASUS RT-N10 router

2. In the address bar we indicate the IP address of the router: http://192.168.1.1
After entering the address, an authorization window will appear on the screen to access the router settings ( Rice. 5). To enter the configurator, enter:

• login – admin
• password - admin

3. Not For experienced users, the system will offer an attempt to set up an automatic connection through the configurator; to do this, just click “ Further": Rice. 6

4. If your provider provides the Protocol - Static IP address and exactly 192.168.1.1 (how to find out what protocol you have is described in detail in our instructions: Preparing the PC before setting up a Wi-Fi router), which coincides with the router’s IP address, in the “ LAN", in the tab LAN IP address, you should change the router's IP address to 192.168.100.1 , then press “ Apply"and reboot the router. We also reboot the computer and re-enter the router through the browser, but through a new IP address ( Rice. 7):

5. If the protocol is different from the above or your operator has a different IP address, skip Point 4.:

6. If auto-tuning does not complete successfully, go to the “ WAN", where from the list we select the Protocol of your operator ( PPPoE, PPTP or L2TP):

7. Depending on the provider, IP addresses and DNS are provided automatically or must be entered manually. We will also learn these parameters from the instructions: Preparing the PC before setting up a Wi-Fi router. We indicate in the window Username And password, according to the requirements of the operator, and binding, if necessary, to the physical address:

8. After applying and rebooting the router, enter the settings section Wireless network.

According to the above figure, you should specify the parameters of the future Wi-Fi network:

• “SSID” – you can leave the network name or change it to your preferred one;
• “Wireless network mode” - we also recommend choosing a specific one; if the computer does not support Wi-Fi class N (indicated in its specification), select the mode "g Only". Mixed modes are not recommended "...mixed";
• “Channel” - instead of “Auto” we recommend choosing a specific one from 1 to 13 (for example 6 or 9);
• “Authentication method” – (protecting your network - will help protect your home network from connecting inquisitive neighbors J) – we recommend choosing WPA-Personal– a reliable encryption method that will ensure your security. This mode is used for maximum data exchange speed. WEP encryption reduces the speed of network access, and the WPA2 type is not supported by all devices that will connect to the router;
• “WPA encryption” - for the WPA verification method, select TKIP;
• "WPA Pre-Shared Key" is a password that protects your network. It must be entered if the Authentication Method from the previous paragraph is specified - you will have to come up with a password yourself and enter it in the appropriate field, remember it and write it down in your notebook.

Routers or routers allow you to wirelessly connect several consumers to the Internet. Asus brand devices are widely used due to their optimal combination of price and quality. For the device to operate effectively, you need to enter the correct parameters for its operation. To do this, you will need to enter the settings of your Asus router. Let's figure out how to do this.

In addition to a personal computer or laptop, it is also possible to enter the equipment settings and adjust them using a smartphone or tablet. It is best to make changes to functional parameters during a cable connection to the consumer. Setting up your router over a wireless network may cause it to

Connecting a peripheral device to the router using the supplied cable is easy.

1. One end of it is inserted into the LAN socket of the router, and the other into the corresponding computer connector according to the configuration.
2. Then the router is connected to the power supply network; the main Internet cable located in the WAN connector can not be disconnected.

Wireless connection

The Wi-Fi network broadcast by the new router is publicly accessible; you do not need to enter a password to connect to it. In most cases it will be called Asus and an icon with the highest signal level will be placed next to it. The connection is made:

If the router has been used before or has an unknown password, you need to return it to the factory settings. On the back of the case there is a hole with a small diameter, marked “RESET”. It contains a button that must be pressed and held for about 10 seconds with a thin, sharp instrument like a needle. Device parameters return to factory defaults.

Enter the router settings

In order to get into the administrative control panel of the Asus router, perform the following steps:

Step 1. The consumer connects to the device using a cable or wireless network.

Step 2. From an open browser, you enter the router settings menu. To access the router settings, you will need its IP address. You can find out by making a cable connection or in the wireless network access menu. In addition, the login information is indicated on a sticker located on the back of the device.

On a note! Of course, if the login and password have been changed previously, new data should be entered. If they are lost, you will have to restore the router to factory settings using the method described above. The admin panel opens.

The device comes with software recorded on disk. It contains useful utilities and operating instructions. It is the easiest way to change the settings of your Asus router.

Sometimes, after performing these steps, the administrative control panel of the router does not open, but the message “page not available” appears. In this case, you should do the following:

• for a wireless connection, check the IP transmission parameters;
• if automatic address acquisition is activated and the error remains, you need to connect using a cable;
• check the integrity of its connection;
• Check the LED indication on the router case to make sure there is electrical power to the device.

In addition, you can try logging into the administrative control panel of the router using another Internet traffic consumer.

Conclusion

In conclusion, we note that entering the settings of the Asus router is not particularly difficult. By following the steps of the simple instructions, it is quite possible to do it yourself, without resorting to the help of specialists. It is better to install the firmware via a cable connection. Changes made over the wireless network may damage the equipment.

How to enter the settings of the Asus router (login to the admin panel)

In this article, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the instructions for setting up an Asus router by logging into the admin panel of the router using the data provided for this.

Routers from the manufacturer Asus are among the most popular and widespread in our country, especially the models: RT-AC51U, RT-AC68U, RT-N12, RT-N16, RT-N11P, RT-AC3200, RT-N14U, RT-N66U, RT -AC87U, RT-AC66U, RT-N56U, RT-N56U. The process of setting them up is not much different from setting up equipment produced under other brands, but there are still differences. Therefore, we decided to create separate instructions for Asus routers.

We configure Asus equipment as standard:

1. We connect to the router using a network cable or via a Wi-Fi network.
2. Using any browser, go to the control panel.

Please note that you can enter the settings and change them not only from a desktop PC, but also from any mobile device: tablet, smartphone. However, it is more convenient to do this using a desktop PC or laptop. In this case, it is better that the device is connected via a cable, but if you use a wireless connection, then keep in mind that you should not update the router firmware using Wi-Fi, because There is a high probability of receiving non-working equipment instead of a working device.

Entering the Asus router settings - 2 connection methods

• If you already have a router connected to your computer, you can scroll down this instruction page, since we will start with the connection process.
• If you do not have a connection, you must establish it in one of two ways: through network cable or WiFi compound. Let's look at both options in more detail:

Connecting to the router via a network cable (network).

• Everything is very simple here: we take the cable that comes with the router and connect it to the device using the LAN connector. The connectors are labeled and therefore the error here is minimal, since you can choose any of the four (see the figure below). The second end of the cable is inserted into the connector of the system unit or laptop. This is what it should look like:
