JioFi Default Password: Best way to Find It – 2026
Short answer: For most JioFi devices, the default Wi‑Fi name (SSID), Wi‑Fi password and JioFi Default Password are printed on a sticker on the device or under the battery. The admin login for the JioFi web dashboard is often:
Username: administrator
Password: administrator
…unless you (or someone else) have changed it. You should always change these defaults after the first login.
Important: Only access and configure JioFi devices you own or have permission to manage. Never try to break into someone else’s network.

1. What Is JioFi?
JioFi is Reliance Jio’s portable Wi‑Fi hotspot device. You insert a Jio SIM into the unit, and it creates a Wi‑Fi network that phones, laptops, and other devices can connect to.
- Useful where wired broadband is not available.
- Can connect multiple devices at once.
- Has its own Wi‑Fi SSID and JioFi Default Password (for users).
- Has a web dashboard (admin panel) for configuration.

2. How to Find the Default JioFi Wi‑Fi Password (On the Device)
For most JioFi models (JioFi 2/3/4, JMR series, etc.), the default Wi‑Fi and JioFi Default Password name and password are printed on the device itself.
Step‑by‑step (Wi‑Fi SSID & password)
- Turn off the JioFi device (optional but safer if you’re opening the back).
- Remove the back cover gently.
- If required, take out the battery to reveal the inside sticker.
- Look for a label that shows:
- SSID – this is the default Wi‑Fi name (something like
JioFi3_XXXXXX). - PWD / Password / Key – this is the default Wi‑Fi password.
- SSID – this is the default Wi‑Fi name (something like
- Note down the SSID and password exactly as printed (case‑sensitive).
- Reinsert the battery and cover, then switch the JioFi back on.
You should change this default Wi‑Fi password later (see below), but this is how you can connect for the first time.
3. JioFi Default Admin Username & Password (Web Dashboard)
The JioFi has a small web interface you can open in your browser to manage settings (Wi‑Fi name, password, etc.). To enter this admin panel, you need an admin username and password.
On many JioFi models (factory default):
- Admin URL:
http://jiofi.local.htmlorhttp://192.168.225.1 - Username:
administrator - Password:
administrator
However:
- Some newer firmware may have different defaults or force you to set a new password during initial setup.
- The login password may already have been changed (if someone configured the JioFi in the past).
- In a few cases, the default admin login can also be printed on the inside sticker or user manual.
If administrator / administrator doesn’t work and you’re sure you’re using the right IP or URL, you may need to reset the device (see the reset section) to get back to factory settings.
4. How to Log In to the JioFi Admin Dashboard
Once you know (or have reset) the JioFi Default Password or admin password, follow these steps:
- Connect your phone or laptop to the JioFi’s Wi‑Fi network using the current Wi‑Fi password.
- Open a web browser (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, etc.).
- In the address bar, type:
http://jiofi.local.htmlorhttp://192.168.225.1
- You should see the JioFi web interface. Click Login (usually top‑right).
- Enter the admin username and password:
- Username:
administrator - Password:
administrator(or whatever you changed it to)
- Username:
- Click Submit or Login.
After logging in, you can change Wi‑Fi settings, check connected devices, and update the JioFi Default Password or admin password.
5. How to Change Your JioFi Wi‑Fi Name & Password
For security, you should change the default JioFi Wi‑Fi or JioFi Default Password password as soon as possible.
Change Wi‑Fi name (SSID) and password
- Log in to the JioFi admin dashboard (see previous section).
- Look for a menu called Wi‑Fi, Network, or Settings > Wi‑Fi (exact wording can vary by firmware).
- Find fields like:
- SSID or Wi‑Fi Name – change this to a name you like (avoid personal info like your full name).
- Password / Security Key – enter a strong Wi‑Fi password:
- At least 10–12 characters.
- Mix of letters, numbers, and symbols.
- Avoid simple words like
12345678or your phone number.
- Security Mode – choose WPA2‑PSK (or WPA2/WPA3 if available).
- Click Apply or Save.
- Your JioFi will likely restart the Wi‑Fi. You’ll need to reconnect your devices using the new Wi‑Fi password.
Change the JioFi Default Password and JioFi admin password
You should also change the admin login password, so others on your network can’t change settings easily.
- In the JioFi dashboard, look for a section like Account, Admin Settings, or User Management.
- Find “Change Password” or similar for the administrator account.
- Enter the old password (for example,
administrator) and then
