I am concerned about the possibility that someone nearby has hacked into the wifi modem in my home. Sometimes my account shows large volumes of Internet traffic on days when my Internet connection has had little or no use at all.
Home Network Security scanned my Asus laptop and alerted me to some vulnerabilities in my system. As i worked through these, I arrived at a screen with the following information:
“Smart Scan
Step 2/3: Network threats

The last line is a link that opens a browser tab with my local IP address in the address bar. The page has the following information:
“Authentication required

Your connection to this site is not private.

My question is, how can I find out the user name and password that I need to gain access to my router settings? I have tried everything that I can think of. Or is there an another way that I can reset my router password?
