Most PTCL broadband modems use 192.168.10.1, which is why so many people in Pakistan search for it. Flash Fiber ONTs use 192.168.1.1.
How to log in to the PTCL router
- Connect to your PTCL Wi-Fi (or plug in a LAN cable).
- Open a browser and go to 192.168.10.1 or 192.168.1.1.
- Enter the username and password below. If they fail, use the ones on the router label.
- Open the Wi-Fi / WLAN menu to change your network name and password.
PTCL default username and password
| Router / ISP | Login address | Username | Password |
|---|---|---|---|
| PTCL DSL modem (ZTE / Huawei) | 192.168.10.1 | admin | admin (some modems: last 5 digits of the MAC address on the label) |
| PTCL Flash Fiber ONT | 192.168.1.1 | admin | Printed on the label |
Credentials vary by model and installation date. The sticker on your router always wins.
Change the PTCL Wi-Fi password
After logging in: Network → WLAN → SSID Settings / Security → change the name and WPA passphrase → Submit.
Use at least 12 characters. Every device will need the new password to reconnect.
192.168.10.1 not opening? Fixes that work
- Connect to the router first. Use its Wi-Fi or a LAN cable — mobile data will never reach 192.168.10.1.
- Type it in the address bar, not the search box, and include
http://—http://192.168.10.1. Many routers have no HTTPS page. - Check for typos: only numbers and dots. The letter “l” or “o” in place of 1 or 0 will not work.
- Your router may use a different address. Check the default gateway (see above) or the label.
- Turn off VPN, proxy or “Private Relay”. They send traffic outside your home network.
- Try another browser or a private window, and clear the cache.
- Restart the router: unplug it for 30 seconds, then wait two minutes after plugging it back in.
- Still stuck? A factory reset restores the default address and password.

Still need help?
If the login page will not open or the password is refused, contact PTCL support: 1218. A factory reset also works, but on ISP routers it can remove your internet settings — ask your provider first.
