How do I configure the IP Address of a router?

When you install a new router you will need to configure it using your PC. The normal method of logging on to a router is to connect an Ethernet cable from the PC to one of the router's network ports, open your browser and type the default IP Address of your router into the Address field. To find your router's default IP address, check the manufacturer's documentation. This should also contain the Username and Password to allow you to login.

Once in the configuration, you will then have the option to change the IP Address if you so wish. The question is, what should I change it to, if at all? Most people will simply configure the router for DHCP operation, and the choice of router IP Address left as the factory default. But what if you want to configure your router manually?

 

Private Addressing

The router address will almost certainly be a number in one of the following three ranges of addresses commonly used for internal networks. The ranges are:

  • 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.254
  • 172.16.0.0. to 172.31.255.255
  • 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255

 

Simply change the IP address in the router configuration, save it and possibly you may need to do a power reset.

 

Tip 1

If you change the router's IP address, make sure it will fit the needs of your network. In other words all the other attached devices which need to have a unique IP address in order to communicate with each other 

 

Tip 2

If you do change the IP Address, do not use an IP address ending in 0.0 or 255.255, as these have a special function.

 

Tip 3 

Having the same address as everyone else is actually safe. Even though there are probably thousands of routers in homes around the country with the IP Address 192.168.0.1, the beauty of these IP addresses is that they're secure, as the Internet will refuse to accept these addresses to route a call. It's rather like giving a letter to a postman with an unrecognisable postcode; they simply wouldn't know where to send it! 

 

Tip 4

If you change the IP address of the router - remember it! If you forget it, and you need to change the router configuration for some reason, you may find yourself having to go back to the factory settings so that you can access the router using the default IP Address
