What is the best way to locate the IP address of my router on any device?

 To find the IP address of your router on any device, you can follow these steps:

  1. On a Windows PC:

    • Click on the Windows Start button, type "cmd" in the search bar and hit Enter.
    • In the Command Prompt window, type "ipconfig" and press Enter.
    • Look for the "Default Gateway" entry, which is the IP address of your router.
  2. On a Mac:

    • Click on the Apple icon in the top left corner of your screen, select "System Preferences", and then "Network".
    • In the Network preferences window, select the active network connection (e.g., Wi-Fi or Ethernet) from the left-side menu.
    • Look for the "Router" entry, which is the IP address of your router.
  3. On a mobile device (e.g., iPhone, iPad, or Android device):

    • Go to the device's Settings app and tap on "Wi-Fi".
    • Find the active Wi-Fi network you are connected to and tap on the "i" icon next to its name.
    • Look for the "Router" or "Gateway" entry, which is the IP address of your router.

Note that the specific steps to find the IP address of your router may vary slightly depending on the device's operating system and its specific settings. If you have trouble finding the IP address of your router, you can consult its manual or the manufacturer's website for specific instructions.
