Listed below are default passwords for Arris and Motorola Surfboard cable modems and residential gateways. The default IP address is typically 192.168.0.1.
Note: Arris acquired Motorola's home networking division; many Motorola Surfboard gateways are now sold under the Arris brand. Most models use admin as the username and password as the password. ISP-provisioned gateways may have custom credentials set by your Internet Service Provider — check the label on the bottom of the unit or contact your ISP if the defaults below do not work.
Security note: After logging in with the default credentials, change the admin password immediately to a strong, unique password. Leaving the default admin password in place allows anyone on your network — or anyone who guesses your WiFi password — to reconfigure your gateway.
