How To Access The Eastlink Router Settings?
These are the steps required to access the Eastlink router admin dashboard.
STEP 1 – The Device Must Be Connected To The Network
This is the first thing you need to check. Your device must be connected to the network or accessing the router settings will be impossible.
You can connect the device over WiFi if you want, but if there is a possibility to connect over the network cable, it is the more recommended option. Besides being more stable than wireless, the wired connection in some cases doesn’t require you to know the admin username and password. And also, sometimes the router settings block the attempt to access the router settings over WiFi, so keep this in mind if you have some problems logging in.
STEP 2 – Open A Web Browser
Open the web browser on your device. All the devices we have mentioned have a web browser installed. You can use Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome or any other if you want. Just make sure it is recently updated.
STEP 3 – Enter The Eastlink IP In The Address Bar
Eastlink routers use 192.168.0.1 as a default IP address. You need to type this IP into the browser’s address bar at the top and press enter or Go after you do that. If 192.168.0.1 is the right router IP address you will see the Eastlink router login page.
In case the Eastlink router login page doesn’t show up, you need to find the IP address your router is using. You can follow our guide on how to find the router IP address.
STEP 4 – Enter The Eastlink Admin Username And Password
When you see the Eastlink router login page you need to enter the admin username (admin or cusadmin depending on the router model) and the admin password (password or the default WiFi password).
Then press the Login button and you should be taken to the Eastlink router admin dashboard.
What To Do If You Can’t Login?
In certain cases, the Eastlink router login will fail. Luckily, there are a few quick-fix solutions you can apply and resolve the current issue. This should allow you to continue with the login steps and access your Eastlink router settings successfully.
1. Check Your Connection
When it comes to the connection, we have already mentioned that you can connect using a wired or wireless connection. Based on that there are several different things you can check and try in order to fix the problem. For example:
- If you are connected wirelessly, try connecting using a wired connection. In most cases this will fix the problem.
- Check whether your device is connected.
- Check whether Airplane mode is ON.
- Check whether you are connected to the right network.
- Check whether the network cable is firmly connected.
- Try connecting from another device.
2. Check the router IP address
After you type the router IP the router login page should appear. If it doesn’t, check the following:
- Have you typed the IP in the URL/Address bar or in the Search bar?
- Have you typed the IP correctly? Type it again.
- Have you typed the correct IP address? Find the IP address using this guide.
3. Check the admin login details
When you type the IP, you will be asked to enter the admin username and password. If you receive an error message here, try the following:
- Check the label on your router and check whether you are using the correct username and password.
- Type the admin and password again and pay attention whether Autocorrect is changing the first small letter into a capital one. The admin login details are case-sensitive.
- Use the custom username and password if you know that the default ones have been changed.
4. Other tips

- Disable your antivirus and firewall
