10.0.1.1 was the default for Apple AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule. They were configured with the AirPort Utility app rather than a browser.
How to log in to 10.0.1.1
- Connect your phone or computer to the router’s Wi-Fi or plug in a LAN cable.
- Open Chrome, Safari, Edge or Firefox and type
http://10.0.1.1in the address bar (not the search box). - Enter the admin username and password — see the table below or the sticker on the router.
- You are in. Change the Wi-Fi name and password, see connected devices or update the firmware.
Common typing mistakes
Router addresses contain only numbers and dots. These versions will not open your router:
l0.0.l.l10.0.1.l1o.o.1.110 0 1 110,0,1,110 0.1.110011http//10.0.1.1www.10.0.1.1
The correct address is 10.0.1.1.
Change your Wi-Fi name and password
- Log in at 10.0.1.1 with the admin username and password.
- Open the Wireless (or WLAN / Wi-Fi) section.
- Change the SSID to set a new network name.
- Set security to WPA2-PSK or WPA3 and type a new password of at least 12 characters in the “Password”, “Pre-Shared Key” or “WPA Passphrase” box.
- Save or apply. Your devices will disconnect — reconnect them with the new password.

10.0.1.1 not opening? Fixes that work
- Connect to the router first. Use its Wi-Fi or a LAN cable — mobile data will never reach 10.0.1.1.
- Type it in the address bar, not the search box, and include
http://—http://10.0.1.1. Many routers have no HTTPS page. - Check for typos: only numbers and dots. The letter “l” or “o” in place of 1 or 0 will not work.
- Your router may use a different address. Check the default gateway (see above) or the label.
- Turn off VPN, proxy or “Private Relay”. They send traffic outside your home network.
- Try another browser or a private window, and clear the cache.
- Restart the router: unplug it for 30 seconds, then wait two minutes after plugging it back in.
- Still stuck? A factory reset restores the default address and password.
Find your router’s IP address
If the address on this page does not open, your router uses a different one. Your device already knows it — it is called the default gateway.
- Windows: press Win + R, type
cmd, then runipconfig. Look for “Default Gateway”. - Mac: System Settings → Network → Wi-Fi → Details → TCP/IP → “Router”.
- Android: Settings → Wi-Fi → tap your network (or the gear icon) → “Gateway” or “Router”.
- iPhone / iPad: Settings → Wi-Fi → tap ⓘ next to your network → “Router”.
- Linux: run
ip route | grep default. - Label: most routers print the login address on a sticker underneath.
