10.100.0.1 router login
To open the admin panel, type 10.100.0.1 into your browser's address bar. If the page does not load, this is probably not the gateway address on your network — see the checks below.
10.100.0.1 router passwords
Where to find them:
- The label on the underside or back of the router — most manufacturers print the default admin username, password and Wi-Fi key there.
- The quick-start card or manual that came in the box.
- Your ISP's account portal, if the device was supplied by them — many set a unique password per line rather than a shared default.
No default username and password pair is documented for equipment reachable at 10.100.0.1, and guessing one is a poor use of time: repeated failed logins lock out some management interfaces for minutes at a stretch. The device's own defaults are the only reliable source. Look at the printed label on the underside or rear panel, check the quick-start card that shipped in the box, or read the model's manual. Where the hardware was supplied by an internet provider, the provisioning credentials are frequently listed in the account portal or the installation paperwork rather than on the unit.
How to log in to your router
Type 10.100.0.1 into your browser's address bar and press Enter. Type it by hand rather than accepting an autocomplete suggestion, which often fills in a different address you visited before.
If the browser reports that it cannot reach 10.100.0.1, this is not the gateway address on your network. On Windows run ipconfig /all and read the Default Gateway line; on macOS open System Settings, Network, Details, TCP/IP; on Linux run ip route and read the address after "default via".
If the login page loads but rejects your credentials, and you have never changed them, use the defaults printed on the device's label. If they have been changed and nobody knows the new password, a factory reset is the only way back in.
If you do not know the password
If the interface answers but no password works, a factory reset is the usual last resort, and it is not free. Resetting typically clears the wireless network name and key, any static addressing, firewall and port-forwarding rules, VPN definitions and DHCP reservations, so every client has to be rejoined afterwards. On managed or provider-supplied hardware it can also drop connection settings that only the operator can restore. Since no specific vendor is known to ship this address, follow the reset procedure in that unit's own documentation; on many devices it is a recessed button held for roughly ten to thirty seconds while powered on. Export a configuration backup first if the interface allows it.
10.100.0.1 belongs to 10.0.0.0/8, the block defined with netmask 255.0.0.0 and 16,777,216 addresses. It is the largest of the three RFC 1918 ranges and is common in corporate and campus networks, ISP-managed CPE, carrier-grade equipment, VPN address pools and container or orchestration networks, where the space is almost always subnetted far below /8. Because private space is reusable, the same address can be live in thousands of unrelated networks at once, so nothing about the number itself identifies a network, an operator or a place.
The surrounding /24 is 10.100.0.0/24, whose usable hosts run from 10.100.0.1 to 10.100.0.254 with 10.100.0.255 reserved as the broadcast address. This address is the first usable host in that range, the slot administrators most often hand to the router or firewall that serves the segment, which makes a gateway role a reasonable first guess here. Twelve other addresses in the same /24 are documented separately.
Most people arriving with this address in mind want to open a management interface in a browser, confirm whether it really is the gateway their machine is using, or work out why it stopped answering.

Comment: These addresses are in use by many millions of independently operated networks, which might be as small as a single computer connected to a home gateway, and are automatically configured in hundreds of millions of devices. They are only intended for use within a private context and traffic that needs to cross the Internet will need to use a different, unique address.
