What is 192.168.111.1?

192.168.111.1 is a private IP address in the 192.168.111.0/24 range. It is the first address in that range, which is why it is often the router’s gateway on networks that use it.

In my experience, the address is usually the gateway on home networks that use the 192.168.111.x range. I have also seen it show up as a device address when a second router or access point hands out addresses. The only way to be sure is to look at your own network.

How to find which device uses 192.168.111.1

The fastest way to find the device is in your router. I check the device list first, because it shows the name of each device next to its address.

  1. Open your router’s admin page and sign in.
  2. Open the list of connected or attached devices.
  3. Look for 192.168.111.1 and read the device name next to it.
  4. If the name is your router’s model or says gateway, the address is the router itself.

If the device is not in the list, it has probably left the network. The address can then be given to another device, so it may not stay with the same gadget for long.

How to reach your router login instead

To change Wi-Fi settings or the router password, you need the router’s own address. On most home networks it is 192.168.1.1, but on networks that use the 192.168.111.x range, the gateway is often 192.168.111.1 itself.

Type it in your browser while you are on the home network, then sign in with the details on the label. If the label is gone, your router maker’s guide can help — see the router brands page.

In my own home, I keep a short note with the router address and password in the same place as the other household passwords. It saves a lot of guessing later.

If 192.168.111.1 will not open in your browser

Opening 192.168.111.1 in a browser may show nothing, or the page may time out. That is normal when the address belongs to a device instead of the router, or when you are on a different network.

If you expected a login page, you may have the wrong address. If you are not sure which address your router uses, try the Router IP Finder. It shows the address to open for your own network.
