If you want to make any changes to your home WiFi network, for example, rename your network, modify password, adjust the security level, or configure VPN Unlimited, you need to log into your router’s admin panel first. And to access your router settings and configure devices connected to the router, you need to know your router’s IP address.
Below, we’ll show you how to find your router IP address in a few simple steps, as well as indicate default IPs for some of the most popular routers.
If you are interested in the way you connect to the internet you probably know that there are two different IP addresses involved when you are getting online. One the world sees, the other only you see. Let’s slightly dig into the topic.
Your router has two IP addresses: one public, or external, called WAN (Wide-Area Network), and a private, also known as LAN (Local Area Network) or default gateway IP.
WAN is your Router IP, and it is used to connect to the world. It is assigned by your Internet Service Provider. This public IP address is a mark that every other network or computer in the world will know. It usually consists of four sets of digits separated by three dots. WAN IP will change if you connect to another network with your laptop and go on the web in a different place, like a hotel, restaurant, or airport.
A LAN or private IP address is your local area network IP address, also known as the Gateway IP address is used by devices in your home network. You can’t use it to access your computer remotely or send any traffic to it. It is provided by your router for your home network only. It is also the IP address you need to know if you want to access your router settings. For this, you just need to enter it in a browser’s address bar on any device connected to the network, log in, and start setting up your router.
