192.168.100.1 is a private IP address often used by router manufacturers as a default router IP. As a default IP, it allows us to access the router settings page and tweak the router settings as we like it..<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The average user really doesn\u2019t have to know all the technical details of this IP, but knowing how to use it properly to secure its wireless network or use the parental controls is a more important thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This IP is often used for routers produced by Ubee Interactive<\/a>, Huawei, some Netgear routers<\/a>, Motorola <\/a>(their MB series of routers uses this IP address as a default one), Virgin Media hubs<\/a> in Modem Mode and so on..<\/p>\n\n\n\n Just like with other default IP addresses the main role is to help us access the router settings. Let\u2019s see what are the exact steps to login to your router using this IP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before we begin you need to check the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can access the router settings only from a device already connected to the network. If you aren\u2019t connected you won\u2019t be able to login to your router.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can easily check this ether in the user\u2019s manual, on the label on the router or you can follow the steps given in this guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These login details are usually printed in the manual or on a label on the router so check these first. Otherwise you can try the ones given below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the answer to these questions is YES<\/strong>, you may proceed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Open the web browser installed on your device. Having an active Internet connection is not necessary since we are trying to access the router, not an actual website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After you type 192.168.100.1 in the address bar of the web browser and press the Enter key or Go button you will be take to the router login page. We have to point out that one of the most common mistakes people do is typing this IP in the Search bar instead of the Address bar, so be careful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can find the default login details in the user\u2019s manual or you can check whether they are printed somewhere on the router (usually on a label under the router). If you don\u2019t have these you can try with the following usernames and passwords.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHow to use 192.168.100.1?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
