Thank you for reaching out to us and I am very sorry this happened. We will need to view the modems password internally as the one the system shows will be the accurate one. To find the accurate password, open any browser you would like on a computer connected to your HughesNet modem directly via Ethernet cable. In the address bar at the top of the page, type in 192.168.0.1 or systemcontrolcenter.com. This will populate the control center for your modem. On the left side of the screen, click on WiFi settings and you will be prompted to type in your administrative password. Please type in 'admin' minus the quotations. In the middle of your screen, you will now see a box that houses the settings for your WiFi networks. You should be able to see a section for your password on each of the networks. You can also change the passwords here as well. If you get stuck at any point, feel free to post screenshots and we will point you in the right direction. -Damian
Damian, is there a way to connect directly that isn’t Ethernet? I have MacBook that does not have Ethernet connection.
It's just a thought, but make sure to look closely at the password in case it has characters that could be mistaken for others. What I mean is, like a zero and O, and even worse, a 1, an I (i) and an l (L). Things like that.
After closely examining the back of the modem, and trying every password letter and number combination I could think of, I noticed there was something not matching up with the stickers on the back of the modem/rougher. Turns out someone had stuck a new sticker over the OLD sticker on this one and the CORRECT password was underneath…..I about went insane, bought a USB connecter I didn’t need, and there’s my password hidden there the whole time. 🙄
Outside of using an ethernet USB adapter or borrowing a laptop that has this connection, no. It is very rare for the password on the sticker to not be accurate and I do apologize for the inconvenience. If you are able to do either of those recommendations, that would be best as the other options would take much longer. -Damian
