Mynetworksettings.com is what Verizon router users use to access the router’s web interface. When you log in to that URL, you will be able to change the SSID name, WiFi password, and other router default settings.
How to log in to Mynetworksettings.com?
When you log in to your router, you can protect your WiFi network from unauthorized users accessing it without your permission. If this is your first time logging in, here are the steps you can follow:
Step 1: Connect your Device to the Router
You need to connect your device to the router, whether it is a laptop, a PC, or a mobile phone; otherwise, you cannot reach the site. To connect, you can use an ethernet cable or a wireless connection. Just make sure that the cable is working and the WiFi network is correct.
Step 2: Open your Browser
You have to open the browser on your device, type mynetworksettings.com, then press Enter. If you face browser issues, all you have to do is switch from one browser to another. This happens rarely, especially if you use popular browsers like Chrome, Edge, or Safari.
Step 3: Enter your Username and Password
Step 4: You will be Logged in to the Admin Panel
After successfully entering the username and password, you will be taken to the admin page. From there, you can change the settings you think will enhance your browsing and gaming experience. I recommend you prioritize settings such as wireless and security to ensure your network is safe from hackers.
How to Change SSID Name and WiFi Password
If the safety of your network is important to you, then changing the WiFi password and SSID should be the first thing you do when you acquire a new router. To do this, here are the steps to follow:
- Login to the router settings.
- On the main menu, select Basic>Wi-Fi>Primary Network.
- In the Wi-Fi Name field, enter your new network name.
- In the Wi-Fi Password field, enter your new password.
- Click Apply Changes.
How to Reset Your Verizon Router
As I mentioned above, the version router uses mynetworksettings.com to log in to its router settings. But what if you have forgotten your password? Do not worry. You can regain access by resetting your router. Here’s what you can do:
- Find the small reset button on the back of your router. You may need a paperclip or something similar to press it.
- With the router turned on, press and hold the reset button for 15 seconds.
- Release the button and wait for the router to reset and power back on. This may take a few minutes.
- Once the router is back on, set up your Wi-Fi name and password again and create a strong password.
- And that’s it! Your Verizon router has been reset to factory settings.

- Network connection issue: If the login page is not opening, try checking whether connecting your device to the router through the network (Wi-Fi or Ethernet) is necessary or not. If other websites also do not load, turn off and turn on the router or the modem.
- Incorrect IP Address or URL: In this case, the login page will not be visible on the screen since you are using an invalid address.

You can search for the default router IP addresses online.
