How to Find Your Router IP Address (Windows, Mac, Linux, Phone)
Find your router’s IP address in seconds with one command or a few taps, then open its admin page.
Your router’s address is called the default gateway. Run one command, or check your phone’s Wi-Fi details, then paste the result into the box below to pull out the address.
Find your router address
Nothing you paste leaves your browser.
How it works
- Pick your device below. You get the exact command or the tap path.
- Run it, then paste the result into the box (optional).
- Open the address it finds in your browser: http:// followed by that address.
Where to look on each device
| Device | Where |
|---|---|
| Windows | Command Prompt: ipconfig, then Default Gateway |
| macOS | Terminal: route -n get default | grep gateway |
| Linux | Terminal: ip route | grep default |
| iPhone | Settings, Wi-Fi, the i next to your network, Router |
| Android | Settings, Wi-Fi, your network, Gateway or Router (names vary) |
If it does not look right
- No gateway is shown
- You may not be connected to the router, or you are on a VPN. Reconnect and try again.
- The gateway looks like 10.0.0.1 or 192.168.x.x
- Both are normal private addresses. Open it as http:// followed by the address.
- The result is a public-looking address
- You may be connected through a different network or tunnel. Switch off the VPN.
- Look up your brand
- See the default router IP list for every brand and the Indian ISP list.
