How to Change Arris Router IP Address

There are two types of IP addresses in a router: external and internal. The external IP address is assigned to the router by the ISP, and the internal IP address is fixed. The Arris Router IP address, also known as the internal LAN IP address, is a fixed default value, but it can be changed if you want to.

Some of the common internal IP addresses are 192.168. 0.1, 192.168.1.1, and 10.0.1. To change the IP address of the Arris Router, you first need to access the login page of the router with the help of default login details, explore the Arris modem settings, and make the required changes to edit the IP address. Save the changes and complete the process.

Common Internal IP Addresses for Routers are:

  • 192.168.0.1
  • 192.168.1.1
  • 10.0.0.1
