Do you have other routers in your office? Check out our guides for Xfinity, Spectrum, Fios, and Nighthawk routers.
Like other wired or wireless routers, you can also access Comcast Business router admin using 192.168.1.1 or access it using 192.168.0.1. From there, you can access the smart setup wizard or other router configuration details related to your router and internet connection.
Comcast Default IP Address
Your IP address is the network address for your device, so the Internet knows where to send you data. This portion of the article will walk you through finding your network adapter’s IP address. Comcast’s default IP address is 10.1.10.1
Change Admin Password on Comcast Business Router Log-in
When you access your new Comcast Business router login, your admin login details are configured to the default settings. The default username is cusadmin, and the default password is highspeed or CantTouchThis. To improve the security of your router, we recommend changing the default admin password.
Time needed: 5 minutes.
Here’s how to change your admin password on your comcast business router log-in.
- Type IP address on browser
Launch a web browser like Firefox or Chrome from a connected wired or WiFi device. Type in the IP address to access the login page.
- Type in login credentials
The admin password is different from the password that you use to access your WiFi network. To change your WiFi password and network name, see the next portion of the article.
The default password will not work anymore once you’ve changed them.
You cannot change the default admin username. - Click on Change Password
In the upper right corner, select Change Password to increase your network security.
- Type in current password
Enter highspeed or CantTouchThis in the Current Password field
- Type in new password
Create a new password of your choice, and reenter it for verification.

Configuring Wireless Settings on Comcast Business Router Log-in
The description of the settings below is applicable for both your 2.4 and 5 GHz networks.
Wireless Network
This setting is used to enable or disable the wireless network.
Network Name
Your SSID, also known as your network name, is the one you see when your device looks for WiFi networks. Changing your SSID will not only personalize your network, but it will distinguish yours from the other networks nearby.
The 2.4 GHz network factory set SSID is CBCI-XXXX-2.4. The 5 GHz network factory set SSID is CBCI-XXXX-5. This information can be found at the bottom panel of the router.
Change the network names by typing in the network name of your choice on the field. Click Save Settings.
Security Mode
There are several security modes that you may choose from. Your selected security mode will determine the requirements for your network password. The standard recommended security mode for most routers is WPAWPA2-PSK(TKIP/AES).
Below is the list of security modes that you may choose from:
- Open (risky)
- 64 bits (5 ASCII characters or 10 Hex digits)
- 128 bits (13 ASCII characters or 26 Hex digits)
- WPA-PSK (TKIP) (8 to 63 ASCII characters or 64 Hex digits)
- WPA-PSK (AES) (8 to 63 ASCII characters or 64 Hex digits)
- WPA2-PSK (TKIP) ( 8 to 63 ASCII characters or 64 Hex digits)
- WPA2-PSK (AES) ( 8 to 63 ASCII characters or 64 Hex digits)

Network Password
Depending on the security model that you selected, the network password will have different requirements. The factory default password can be located on the bottom panel of your router.
Change the default by typing in your new network password on the field provided. Click Save Settings to save your new password.
Broadcast Network Name (SSID)
When this box is checked (it is checked by default), the Business Gateway will be visible to other wireless devices. Devices can automatically detect the access point when enabled.
Uncheck the box if you want to hide your network. When the network is hidden, you’ll need to configure your wireless client devices manually.
These credentials can also be found on other router brands. Check out our guides for Xfinity, Motorola, and Windstream.

I’m having a security mode problem last week on my Comcast router setting. And while searching online this article has the answer to my problem. It is easy to use and understand.
A great article to get something like this done for your router… I just started using Comcast in my office to upgrade my current router. My account only has an IP and a dedicated IP that I use via a local firewall to get around that.
This looks like a good guide about how to secure the hardware. I’m very interested to see how the routers are designed so that it can be secure when something goes down.
