How To Tell What Router I Have?

Are you trying to find the brand and model of your home internet router? It's a common question, as people often need this information to search online for how to guides or troubleshooting solutions.

In this guide, we'll provide you with detailed instructions on how to determine the make and model of your router, whether it 'sit's a branded one that you can purchase online or a custom router provided by your internet service provider (ISP). We'll do our best to cover all possible scenarios to help you find the information you need.

Option #1 – Check The Sticker On The Back

To find the brand and model of your router, you can check the sticker on the router itself. This sticker typically includes login details, Wi-Fi passwords, and router manufacturer and model information.

However, it can be challenging to locate this information as the sticker often includes many numbers, codes, and serial numbers. Search for these details online or type the serial/product number into a search engine to find the brand and model.

Alternatively, you can look for the brand name and model number written below or above the router itself. For example, suppose your router is provided by your internet service provider (ISP) rather than a manufacturer. In that case, the brand and model may be listed on the label on the back of the router or available after logging in.

Option #2 – Login To Your Router To Check

If you don't have physical access to your router or the sticker or label is missing or doesn't include the necessary information, you can try logging in to the router's settings page to find the product details. In the settings, you should be able to find a menu or tab with information about the router's brand and model.

If you don't know the router's login credentials, you may need to find or guess them to access the settings page. However, with some effort, it is often possible to locate the login credentials, even if you need access to the sticker with the information.
