Cantek Camera: Default IP, Username, Password, Port
Cantek cameras are widely used in both residential and commercial surveillance systems due to their reliability and easy installation process. Like most IP cameras, they come with default network settings and login credentials that allow users to perform the initial setup quickly. Understanding these defaults is essential for configuring your camera, troubleshooting issues, or restoring the system after a reset.
Default IP Address
Most Cantek cameras are shipped with the default IP address 192.168.1.108. This address is used for the first login and system configuration. To access the camera, connect it to your network and enter the IP address in your browser. If your network is on a different range, you may need to adjust your computer’s IP temporarily or use a scanning tool to locate the device.
Default Username
The default username for Cantek cameras is usually admin. This account provides full administrative control over the system, including live view, recording setup, and network settings. For security reasons, it is recommended to create additional user accounts with limited privileges for day-to-day use.
Default Password
The default password for most Cantek cameras is 12345. In some newer models, the system may prompt you to set up a unique password during the first login. It is important to change the password immediately to prevent unauthorized access to the device.
Default Port
Cantek cameras typically use 80 as the default HTTP port for web access. Other ports may also be active, such as 554 for RTSP streaming or 443 for HTTPS connections. Modifying these port numbers can help avoid conflicts with other devices on the same network and improve system security, especially for remote access.
