This article explains how the IP address 10.1.1.1 is used, how to connect to a router with the IP address, and what issues are associated with it.

This IP address is only needed to block or access a device with this IP address. For example, since some routers use 10.1.1.1 as their default IP address, you can access the router using this address to make router changes.

10.1.1.1 is a private IP address that can be assigned to any device on local networks that is configured to use this address range. Some home broadband routers, including Belkin and D-Link models, have their default IP address set to 10.1.1.1.

Routers that use a different default IP address can have their address changed to 10.1.1.1. Administrators may choose 10.1.1.1 if they find it easier to remember than the alternatives. While 10.1.1.1 is no different from other addresses on home networks, other addresses have proven to be much more popular, including 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.1.1.
