BT Default IP Address List
Instructions to find your BT router's IP address

Info updated Oct. 5, 2024

Most BT routers have a default IP address of 192.168.1.254.

Pro tip: If you're already connected to the router's network you can use this tool to instantly see your BT router's ip address

The IP address is required when accessing the BT router's web interface to configure it.
Since some of the models don't follow the standards, you'll have to check in the table below if the common default doesn't work.

You can also check the instructions on how to figure out your BT router ip if you are connected to the router's network.

Our readers have reported that their BT router's have had the following IPs
(more common higher in list)

  • 192.168.1.254
  • 192.168.1.1
  • 192.168.0.1

To access the web interface you'll also probably need a username and password, if you find your model in the list there's a link to the default settings for that model. Most BT routers use the same default usernames and passwords so you can also check the Default BT password list to try with that one.

Tip: Press ctrl+f (or cmd+f on Mac) to quickly search for your model number.
