192.168.1.1

192.168.1.1 is the default IP for your Linksys wifi extender to login and access advance settings. You should also use 192.168.1.1 to handle the smart installation wizard for the IP address extender, rather than the Web URL extender.linksys.com.

When setting up and signing in via 192.168.1.1 to the Linksys Extender, be sure to only use the up-to-date version of the Internet browser. Just in case your web browser is up-to-date please restart the web browser you are using and make sure the computer you are using is connected to the configuration of the Linksys extender-xxx. Clearing the Internet browser’s cache, cookies, and browsing history will also help to reach IP without any trouble.

Linksys Extender Authentication Credentials and IP Address Check

Often when entering the default Linksys extender IP address, admin name, and password, users make typos in a hurry. Instead of accessing the Linksys RE6500 setup page, they experience error pop-ups as a result. Therefore be sure to enter the IP address 192.168.1.1 and Linksys extender login credentials correctly without typos in order to fix the error.

If you have updated the device’s admin name and password during the RE6500 configuration of the Linksys extender, try logging in with your personalized admin info.

Note: If you forget the Linksys default password for 192.168.1.1, resetting the Linksys extender back to the default factory settings is the only way to fix the problem.

Power Loop Your WiFi Range Extender with Linksys

If the same problem is indeed observed, then power cycle your Linksys RE6500 extender. Unplug your Linksys extender from the power socket for this. Only wait 5 minutes. Plug it in after that. Enter IP, i.e., 192.168.1.1.
