Shaw Router Login: IP, Username and Password
Log in to Shaw at 10.0.0.1 or 192.168.0.1. Fibre+ and Hitron defaults, WiFi and reset.
Connect to your Shaw router first by WiFi or cable. Older Shaw Hitron modems use 192.168.0.1.
Shaw Fibre+ gateways in Canada open their admin page at 10.0.0.1, while older Shaw Hitron modems use 192.168.0.1. Many settings are in the Shaw BlueCurve Home app.
Here is how to log in to both, change WiFi and reset.
The fastest way in: tap the login button in the box at the top of this page, then sign in with the details on your router label.
How to log in to your Shaw router
- Connect your phone or computer to the router WiFi, or plug in an Ethernet cable.
- Open a browser and type http://10.0.0.1 in the address bar. Older Hitron modems: http://192.168.0.1.
- Enter the username and password from the table below or the router label.
- Once logged in, change the admin password and use WPA2 or WPA3 for WiFi.
If the page does not open, check your Default Gateway with our Router IP Finder. ISP builds sometimes use a different address.
The 10.0.0.1 address is the one I try first on any Shaw that will not open.
Shaw default IP, username and password
| Device | Login address | Username | Password |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shaw Fibre+ Gateway (XB6, XB7) | 10.0.0.1 | admin | password, change on first login |
| Shaw Hitron modems | 192.168.0.1 | cusadmin | password or label |
| After setup | Same | admin or cusadmin | Your own password |
If defaults fail, use the app or reset the gateway. The cusadmin-versus-admin split is the label detail I sort out first on a Shaw. On Hitron modems, the label password is the WiFi Key (Pre-Shared Key) printed on the sticker.
How to change the WiFi password on a Shaw router
- Open the BlueCurve Home app, or log in to the gateway.
- Go to Wi-Fi settings.
- Change the name and password and save.
- Reconnect devices.
Hitron modems use Wireless, Basic Settings. Need a strong key? Try our WiFi Password Generator. For me, the BlueCurve app is where every Shaw WiFi change starts.
Shaw login problems and fixes
- 10.0.0.1 will not load: make sure you are on the router WiFi, not mobile data or a VPN, and type http:// in front.
- Wrong password: check the label first. If you or your ISP changed it, the defaults will not work.
- Page loads but login fails: clear the browser cache or try a private window. Some routers lock you out for a few minutes after several attempts.
- Router from your ISP: the provider may manage it. Their app or support line can reset the admin password.
- Still locked out: a factory reset restores the label login, but erases your settings.
I start with the label check whenever a Shaw login will not work.
How to reset a Shaw router
- Keep the router powered on.
- Press and hold the reset button for about 30 seconds, until the lights flash.
- Release and wait 2 to 3 minutes.
- Log in with the default details and set up WiFi again.
Shaw gateways need several minutes to reconnect after a reset. The 30-second hold is the timing I trust before I reach for a reset on a Shaw.
Shaw BlueCurve gateway and app
Shaw’s internet service in Western Canada uses the BlueCurve Gateway, a modem and WiFi router in one. It opens at 10.0.0.1, and on first login you’re asked to replace the default password with your own.
Most people manage it through the BlueCurve Home app instead, which handles WiFi names, passwords, pausing devices and adding BlueCurve Pods for extra coverage. Since Rogers took over Shaw, newer customers may be moved to Rogers equipment and apps over time. The BlueCurve Home app is now Ignite HomeConnect.
The app-first habit is the one I suggest for anyone new to a Shaw gateway.
Bridge mode on a BlueCurve gateway
- Log in at 10.0.0.1 with your admin password.
- Open Gateway, then At a Glance.
- Find Bridge Mode and set it to Enable.
- Wait for the gateway to restart.
- Connect your own router to one of the gateway’s Ethernet ports.
Bridge mode turns off the gateway’s WiFi and any BlueCurve Pods. Use your own router’s mesh instead.
The WiFi-off warning is the bridge-mode detail I flag first for any Shaw owner.
BlueCurve Pods
BlueCurve Pods plug into the wall and extend the gateway’s WiFi. They’re added and managed in the BlueCurve Home app. Place them halfway between the gateway and the weak area, not in the dead zone itself. The plug-in-the-wall simplicity is the Pod detail I mention first to Shaw owners.
BlueCurve gateway lights
- White: working.
- Flashing white: starting up or connecting.
- Amber: no internet. Restart and check cables.
- Red: a fault. Restart, then contact support.
The red-light case is the one I act on first when a BlueCurve gateway looks dead.
