Where to find

Information regarding default passwords for Zyxel Access Points is determined by their manufacturing date.

  1. Identify the AP's manufacturing date.
    • Access Points manufactured before February 2025 use the legacy default password "1234" for initial login. Please attempt to log in using this password.
  2. (Optional) Refer to the unique password implementation for newer devices.
    • If the default password "1234" does not work, or if your APs were manufactured after February 2025, they might have a unique password.
    • For more information, please consult the Zyxel Community article on Unique Password Implementation in Access Points.
