| Quick Summary: Connect to your Inseego MiFi Wi-Fi, open a browser, go to my.mifi or 192.168.1.1, enter your admin password (same as your Wi-Fi password by default), and manage your hotspot settings from the dashboard. |
Your Inseego MiFi is a mobile hotspot, a small device that creates its own Wi-Fi network using a cellular connection. This guide walks you through accessing the admin panel to change your hotspot name, password, and other settings.

What You Need Before You Begin
Make sure you have these five things ready before you begin.
- Inseego MiFi router: powered on and broadcasting
- A device: laptop, tablet, or smartphone
- Wi-Fi or Ethernet cable: to connect to the router
- Default credentials: printed on the router label
- A web browser: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge
Step 1: Connect Your Device to the MiFi Hotspot
Start by connecting your device to your Inseego MiFi router. You can do this over Wi-Fi or by plugging in an Ethernet cable. Make sure your device is on the same local network as the router before moving to the next step.
| Tip: An Ethernet cable prevents your device from disconnecting when you update your Inseego MiFi Wi-Fi settings mid-configuration. |
Step 2: Open the Inseego Admin Dashboard
Open Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge on your device. In the address bar at the top, type the address below and press Enter. This opens the Inseego MiFi admin dashboard.
http://my.mifi
If that address does not open a login page, your Inseego MiFi model may use a different IP. Try each address in the table below in order.
Inseego MiFi router models and ISP configurations can use different default IP addresses. Try each in order from the top.
| IP Address / URL | Model or Use Case | When to Try |
|---|---|---|
| my.mifi | All Inseego MiFi models | Try this first, built-in hostname |
| 192.168.1.1 | Most MiFi models | Try if my.mifi doesn’t load |
| 192.168.43.1 | Some MiFi variants | Try if above two fail |
| 192.168.0.1 | Rare configurations | Check the device label |
Still not loading? Check the sticker on the bottom or back of your router. Visit Inseego’s official support page for model-specific details.
| Important: Type the IP address into the TOP address bar of your browser. Do not type it into the search box, that opens a search engine, not your router. |
Step 3: Sign In to the MiFi Admin Panel
When the login page appears, enter your Username and Password. Most Inseego MiFi routers use the same default credentials from the factory. Use the table below to find the right combination and know what to do if it fails.
Try each credential combination in the table below. If none work, check the sticker on the bottom of your Inseego MiFi router.
| Login Field | Default to Try | What to Do If It Fails |
|---|---|---|
| Username | Not required | Inseego MiFi skips username field |
| Admin Password | Same as Wi-Fi password | Check the MiFi device label |
| Alt, Default Password | admin | Try if Wi-Fi password doesn’t work |
| Login URL | my.mifi | Primary, works on most MiFi models |
| Alt IP Address | 192.168.1.1 | Use if my.mifi doesn’t load |
| Forgot Password? | Cannot recover | Factory reset per manufacturer guide |
After entering your details, click Login to reach the Inseego MiFi admin panel. For persistent login issues, visit Inseego’s official support page.
Step 4: Update Your MiFi Wi-Fi Name and Password
Once inside the Inseego MiFi admin dashboard, updating your Wi-Fi name and password is quick. Follow these steps in order.
- Go to Wireless Settings or Wi-Fi Settings in the navigation menu.
- Find the SSID or Network Name field and type your new Wi-Fi name.
- Navigate to the Security or Password section.
- Enter a strong new password in the Security Key or Pre-Shared Key field.
- Click Save or Apply to make the changes live.
| Security Tip: Use at least 12 characters, mix uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. Never use your name or address. For guidance, visit staysafeonline.org. |
Troubleshooting Your Inseego MiFi
Most login problems fall into three categories, wrong IP, wrong credentials, or a forgotten password. Each one has a direct fix below.
Login Page Will Not Open
Check that your device is connected to the Inseego MiFi router, not a mobile data connection. Type the IP address into the very top bar of your browser, not a search engine. Unplug the router for 30 seconds and try again.
Default Credentials Not Working
Work through every combination in the Step 3 table. Check the sticker on the bottom of your router, ISPs often set their own credentials. Search your model on Router Passwords Database for a complete list.
Forgot Admin Password: Factory Reset
Hold the RESET button on the back of your router for 10, 20 seconds. This restores all defaults. Log back in using the Step 3 credentials. Warning: This erases all your custom settings permanently.
| After a factory reset, log back in with the default Inseego MiFi credentials and go through Step 4 again to set your Wi-Fi name and password. |
