10.0.0.1 is a private IP address used as the default gateway for many routers. It allows users to access their router’s admin panel to manage settings such as changing Wi-Fi password, network name (SSID), or adjusting security options.
This IP address is used by many popular router brands, such as Xfinity, Comcast, and LPB Piso WiFi for router configuration.
Many people mistype 10.0.0.1 as 10.0.0.0.1, which is invalid and will return an error on the webpage. Always double-check the IP address when you see any error while logging in.

Can’t Access 10.0.0.1? Here’s What to Do:
If you’re having login issues, here are some common problems and simple ways to fix them.
1. Incorrect IP Address
Make sure you entered the correct IP address. Use zeros (0), not the letter “O”, and don’t add extra zeros or dots. You can follow this step-by-step guide to find your connected router’s IP address on any device.
| Incorrect |
|---|
| 10.0.0.0.1 |
| 1.O.O.O.1 |
| 10.0.0.01 |
| 1o.o.o.o.1 |
2. Router Not Connected:
Make sure your device is properly connected to the router. If you’re using a laptop or desktop PC, you have two connection options: connect via Wi-Fi for wireless access or use an Ethernet cable for a more stable, wired connection.
3. Router Not Responding:
If you’re seeing an error message like “This site can’t be reached,” or the webpage isn’t responding, it’s possible your router is having trouble. You can follow the steps below to troubleshoot the issue:
4. Restart Your Router:
Unplug the power, wait for about 30 seconds, then plug it back in. Ensure the cables are plugged in correctly and there are no loose connections.
5. IP Conflict:
If your router’s IP address is set to something other than 10.0.0.1, try using a different IP address, like 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1.
If you have more than one router at home or in the office, they might share the same default IP address (e.g., 10.0.0.1), which can cause conflicts. When you attempt to log in to one router, it may direct you to another, resulting in an unresponsive web page.
You can prevent this issue by setting up static IP addresses. You may ask the network administrator for help or follow a step-by-step guide to change the router’s IP address and assign a unique static IP to each device.
Pro Tip: For a more reliable connection when troubleshooting or configuring your router, connect your computer directly to the router using an Ethernet cable.
6. Clear Browser Cache and Cookies:
Your browser’s cache or cookies might be causing you problems. Try clearing them, or open a private/incognito window. You can also try using a different browser to see if that helps.
7. Reset Your Router to Factory Settings:
If nothing works and you still can’t log in, reset your router to its default settings.
Follow the steps below to reset your router:
- Look for a small reset button on the back of the router.
- Press and hold it for 10–15 seconds until the router restarts.
This will reset your router to factory settings, and you can then try logging in again with the default credentials.
Note: Resetting your router will erase all custom settings you’ve configured, including your Wi-Fi name, password, and other personalized options. Use this option only if other solutions don’t work.
