How to Change Zain WiFi Password (Router Login Guide)
You can change your Zain WiFi password by logging into your Zain router’s admin panel using its local IP address. The steps vary slightly depending on your router model.
1. What Is the Default IP to Access Zain Router Settings?
Zain routers usually use one of these IPs:
- 192.168.1.1
- 192.168.0.1
- 192.168.8.1 (for Huawei routers)
Enter the IP into your browser’s address bar while connected to the router.
2. How to Log In to the Router Admin Panel?
To access Zain WiFi settings:
- Open a browser and enter the router’s IP
- Login with default credentials:
| Field | Default Value |
|---|---|
| Username | admin |
| Password | admin or printed on router label |
Tip: If the password was changed before, reset the router using the physical reset button.
3. How to Change the WiFi Password?
After login:
- Go to WLAN or Wi-Fi Settings
- Select SSID Settings
- Locate the WiFi password (often called WPA Key, Pre-shared key, or WiFi Key)

Your WiFi will disconnect temporarily after the change.
