About Private IP address

192.168.1.254 is a Private IP address, one of the addresses for private networks. This means that a device in this private network cannot be accessed directly from the internet using a Private IP, but by any other device on the local network.

While the router itself has a Private IP of 192.168.1.254, it assigns any device in the network a different Private IP address. All IP addresses on the network must have a unique address on that network to avoid IP address conflicts. Other Private IP addresses used by the modem and router are 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.101 .

Access the router's Administration Table

The manufacturer places the IP address of the router at the factory, but you can change this address at any time using the router's administration interface. Enter http://192.168.1.254 (not www.192.168.1.254) into the web browser address bar to access the router's control panel. This is where you can change the router's IP address and configure some other options.

If you don't know the router's IP address, you can locate it using the command prompt as follows:

1. Press Windows-X to open the Power Users menu.
2. Click Command Promp .
3. Enter ipconfig to display a list of all computer connections.
