ZTE ZXDSL 831 modem/router default password

This was first posted on my old blog. It should not be a mystery for those of you who wish to explore your modem supplied by Telekom Malaysia.

The default password may not work if you’re living in another country. I’ve had quite a few people asking for the default password so might as well just document this.

Try
(Case sensitive)

Username: ZXDSL
Password: ZXDSL

or

Username: ADSL
Password: expert03

What do you do when you’ve accessed the administration page? Perhaps you wanna configure your ZTE ZXDSL 831 as a router.

    what does one mean by power cable pulling-can solve problem with the zxdsl modem

  2. toxicle on May 22nd, 2005

    I just registered for streamyx recently and I’m using it now. My problem is I do not know how to do port forwarding because base on your instructions, the interface or firmware… I don’t know which is correct, is different than the one that you posted at your port forwarding blog. The NAT is now under Advance instead of NAT service. Can you help me with this please. Probably Telekom has changed the firmware to a new one or so. I don’t know.

    Thank you.

  5. toxicle on August 29th, 2005

    You mean like come to your house? The firmware may have been updated but the functions are still the same. Look around. I can’t possibly provide help on every firmware version unless you send me your modem :)

  10. Pradeep on December 16th, 2005

  11. s17hy on December 19th, 2005

    I’ve tried these two default passwords and both are not working for my zte zxdsl 831. I think my isp changed the default one. Is it possible?

  12. toxicle on December 19th, 2005

    They only work if you’re in Malaysia.

    guys this is the whole story….we have DSL connection at the office with PROLINK dsl aparatus…and i want to have my own connection in my room (to be used when DSL connection at the office is turned OFF, same phoneline connection) i have other DSL aparatus like ZTE XDSL 831, but the problem is when i’m trying to connect all cables it prompts that connection is unplugged…is there anyhing that i need to install for ZTE XDSL before i used it?

    **my XDSL 831 was used at the other office before.

    for your help pls email me at : [email protected]

    thanks

  40. toxicle on December 3rd, 2006

    edgar: the ZXDSL 831 is a network device and do not need any software.

    May I ask … you said the same phone line … is it a parallel phone line connection? If so you need to have proper DSL filter on both lines. Not advisable to have a parallel connection.

    Phoneline — DSL port (ZXDSL 831) Network port — PC

    http://192.168.1.1 doesnt works!! what should i do??

  51. Juan on April 22nd, 2007

    Hello guys!
    well i have just acquired a 831II modem from my isp i tried from 192.168.1.1 after resetting it and the logon dialog appears.. but after having tried with many users and passwords i still have been unable to get into its setup

    i have tried with
    user:ZXDSL/Admin/admin/user/netadmin/ADSL
    pass:ZXDSL/Admin/admin/user/nimdaten/expert03

    if you have any other pass i may try i would thank you a lot :D
    btw.. i tried to login to it from telnet and this seems to be de firmware of the modem “ZTE In., Software Release ZXDSL 831IIV5.6.1a_E09_UY”
    thanks in advance :)

  52. toxicle on April 22nd, 2007

    alberto: Hard reset

    Juan: Sorry I would have no idea because different ISPs use different username/passwd. You need to check with your local ISP.

  53. blueleaf on April 23rd, 2007

    hi… im a streamyx user with ZXDSL 831, i want to do portforwarding, but seems i cant access the 192.168.1.1 page with those passwords, i also did hardreset, but still cannot. but there s something i dont understand, in my 192.168.1.1 page, there is no such thing as user id, its just login password, help pls =)

  54. toxicle on April 24th, 2007

    blueleaf: Perhaps you are using a new firmware. I would have no idea but you can always try the default passwords like admin, password, , etc.

  55. Rodrigo Rosa on April 26th, 2007

    all the family of ZXDSL 831 modems from ZTE(ZXDSL 831, ZXDSL 831a, ZXDSL 831c, ZXDSL 831d and ZXDSL 831II) acts both like modem and router, and may even include a Firewall.
    To get access to the modem at the IP address 192.168.1.1 to make configurations, you need to set up a fixed IP address in your LAN properties using the same network segment (i.e. 192.168.1.3) wirth the 192.168.1.1 as default gateway, and connect directly to the modem with a network patchcord.

  56. Zanjoe on April 28th, 2007

    This is crazy .. you are incorrectly leading them .. the Interface is really different in what you are talking about .. we are using ZZXDSL 831 .. and the default username and password is admin and admin

  57. Vlu on May 16th, 2007

    hi guys.. i have an internet connection in mya room, theres another computer in our living room and i want to connect that comuter to the internet too… how can i connect that computer to my zte adsl modem without any switch or hub or router.. i mean you know… its pretty expensive for a student like me, is there any other way… thanks… by the way.. i have a rj45 splitter (like on the phone line) can i use that? ill plug the spliiter to the ethernet port… then with two ports now.. ill connect the two pc… is that possible? thanks again

  59. PcMan on July 28th, 2007

    Aztech product username & passwd usually admin & admin

  60. PcMan on July 28th, 2007

    hi Vlu,
    internet connection using DSL is like a network connection. So it doesn work like telephone. If your modem router only got 1 ethernet port, you still need to buy switch or hub to connect xtra pc. I think small hub (4 ports) cost less than RM100 now.

  61. Tobecx on July 28th, 2007

    Pcman, not all aztech family has the same login name n password.thanks toxicle…ur guide is helpful.

  62. tonakis on July 31st, 2007

  74. Sabu on January 15th, 2008

    Hi,

    Out of all the comments, Juan’s comments on 22nd April is same as my problem with my ZTE ZXDSL 831 AII router. I could login with login/password admin/admin but could not get the advanced configuration pages which allows you to configure NAT rules/Virtual Server/IP Filter etc. I think the admin login is opening up the configuration settings for ‘user’ rather than for ’superuser’. How can I get back the advanced configuration pages, cos I need to setup port forwarding for HTML, HTTPS, FTP, Telnet etc.? Is a firmware upgrade needed?

    Thanks in advance & Regards

    Sabu
