10.0.0.1 login
How to open the settings page of a router that uses 10.0.0.1, with the factory login for each brand.
Default username and password
| Brand | Username | Password |
|---|---|---|
| Xfinity (Comcast) gateways | admin | password |
| Apple AirPort | Managed in the app | Managed in the app |
| Some Cisco and Technicolor cable gateways | admin | Printed on the label |
Most routers sold since about 2018 have a unique password printed on the label instead of a shared default. If a default does not work, use the one on the label, or reset the router.
10.0.0.1 is typical for cable internet gateways in North America. Xfinity customers can also change most settings in the Xfinity app.
How to log in to 10.0.0.1
- Connect to the router by Wi-Fi or cable. Turn off any VPN.
- Type
http://10.0.0.1into the address bar of your browser, not into the search box. - If the browser shows a security warning, continue: the router uses its own certificate.
- Enter the username and password from the table above or from the label.
- Change the admin password right away, so nobody else on your Wi-Fi can change your settings.
If 10.0.0.1 does not open
- Check the default gateway of your device: your router may use another address. See how to find your default gateway.
- Make sure you are on the router network, not on mobile data or a guest network.
- Type http:// before the address, or try another browser or a private window.
- Restart the router and wait two minutes.
- Forgot the password? Hold the reset button for about 10 seconds. This restores factory settings, including the Wi-Fi name and password.
Typing mistakes such as 10.0.0.l, 1o.0.0.1 are not addresses: the browser searches for them instead. An IP address has only digits and dots.
FAQ
What is the default password for 10.0.0.1?
It depends on the brand. Most routers made in recent years have a unique password printed on the label on the bottom or back. Older models use a factory default; the table on this page lists them by brand.
Why does 10.0.0.1 not open?
Your router may use a different address, you may not be connected to its network, or a VPN may be on. Check the default gateway of your device and try that address instead.
Is 10.0.0.1 my public IP address?
No. 10.0.0.1 is a private address that only works inside your home network. Websites see your public IP address, which your internet provider assigns.
