Default Router IP Address List by Brand

By Daniel Roul Last updated
Default Router IP Address List

To open your router’s settings, you type its IP address into a browser. The trouble is that the address varies by brand and model, so this page gathers the common defaults in one place. Use the lists below to find the likely address for your router, but remember the most reliable method is to look it up on your own device, which takes seconds and is covered at the end.

The Most Common Default IP Addresses

The large majority of home routers use one of just two addresses. If you are not sure where to start, try these first.

IP addressCommonly used by
192.168.1.1Linksys, Asus, TP-Link (some), Cisco, Zyxel, Belkin (some), Huawei (some)
192.168.0.1TP-Link (many), D-Link (many), Netgear (many), Tenda

Between them, these two cover most consumer routers. If neither loads, work through the brand and address lists below.

Default IP Address by Brand

Brands tend to favor particular addresses, though models vary, so treat this as a strong starting point rather than an absolute rule. For the login credentials, see our default router passwords list.

Router Addresses You Can Type as Names

Several brands let you reach the login page with a web-style name instead of a number, which is easier to remember. These only work when you are connected to that brand’s router.

  • TP-Link: tplinkwifi.net
  • Netgear: routerlogin.net
  • Netgear Orbi: orbilogin.com
  • Linksys: myrouter.local
  • Tenda: tendawifi.com

A Common Mistake: 169.254.x.x Is Not Your Router

If you check your settings and see an address starting with 169.254, that is not your router’s address. It is a link-local address your device assigns itself automatically when it fails to get a proper address from the router, usually a sign of a connection or DHCP problem. Trying to log in to a 169.254 address will not work. If you see one, restart your router and reconnect, and your device should receive a normal address in the 192.168 or 10.0 range. Our full explainer on what 169.254.1.1 means covers the fix and the rare devices that do use it.

In the same way, addresses like 192.168.0.2, 192.168.1.3, 192.168.1.20, 192.168.0.100, and 192.168.0.102 are usually individual devices on your network, such as a phone or laptop, not the router itself. And an address like 192.168.49.1 belongs to a phone’s Wi-Fi Direct hotspot rather than your home router. Addresses ending in .0 or .255, such as 192.168.1.0, are reserved network and broadcast addresses, not devices at all. To reach your router, always use the gateway address you find with the steps below.

How to Find Your Router’s Exact IP Address

Lists are a good starting point, but the surest way is to read the address directly from your device. It takes seconds. For every platform, including Linux and Chromebook, see our full guide on how to find your router’s IP address.

On Windows

  1. Press Windows + R, type cmd, and press Enter.
  2. Type ipconfig and press Enter.
  3. Read the Default Gateway line. That number is your router’s IP address.

On Mac

  1. Open System Settings, then Network.
  2. Select your active connection and click Details.
  3. Open the TCP/IP tab and read the Router field.

On Android

  1. Open Settings, then Network and Internet, then Wi-Fi.
  2. Tap your connected network or its gear icon.
  3. Look for the Gateway or Router field in the network details.

On iPhone or iPad

  1. Open Settings, then Wi-Fi.
  2. Tap the information icon next to your connected network.
  3. Read the Router field.

Whatever address appears there is the correct one for your network, even if it differs from the brand defaults above.

Conclusion

Most routers live at 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1, and the lists above cover the common defaults for the major brands and addresses. But models vary and ISPs customize their equipment, so when a default does not load, do not keep guessing. Read your router’s exact address straight from your device with a quick gateway check, and you will always have the right one. And if you ever see a 169.254 address, that is a connection problem to fix, not a login page to reach.

Frequently asked questions

What is the most common default router IP address?

192.168.1.1 and 192.168.0.1 are by far the most common, together covering most home routers. 192.168.1.1 is typical of Linksys, Asus, and Cisco, while 192.168.0.1 is common on TP-Link, D-Link, Netgear, and Tenda. If one does not load, try the other.

How do I find my router's IP address?

The quickest way is to read it from your device. On Windows, run ipconfig in Command Prompt and read the Default Gateway line. On a Mac or phone, open your network details and look for the Router or Gateway field. That address is always correct for your network.

Why doesn't the default IP address for my brand work?

Because addresses vary by model, or because your router was reconfigured or supplied by an ISP with a custom setup. The brand lists are a starting point, not a guarantee. Find your actual gateway with the steps above, which works regardless of brand or model.

What is a 169.254 address?

It is a link-local address your device assigns itself when it cannot get a proper address from the router, typically due to a connection or DHCP problem. It is not your router's address, and you cannot log in to it. Restart your router and reconnect to get a normal address.

Can I use a name instead of an IP address to log in?

For some brands, yes. TP-Link uses tplinkwifi.net, Netgear uses routerlogin.net, Linksys uses myrouter.local, and Tenda uses tendawifi.com. These only work while you are connected to that brand's router, and the numeric IP address always works as a fallback.

Does my router's IP address ever change?

It rarely changes on its own. It can change if someone reconfigures the router's LAN settings or after a factory reset puts it back to the default. Your public IP address, assigned by your provider, is separate and can change independently.
