To access the main settings of your router, you need to provide a Router IP address. The address is not unique for every router, but still there is no universal router IP address either. The good news is, you can easily find your Router’s IP address right inside your PC without going nuts.

The router IP address is different from your Private or Public IP address. However, your router ip address can be easily found right inside your PC where all other network information is available.

In this Tutorial, we are going to show you two different methods to find your router IP address using your PC. You can use the one that seems easier to follow.
