Do you know the IP address of your router and do you have it stored somewhere? Then everything is fine. However, if you hesitate and ask what the IP address is and what it is used for, be sure to read on, as there may be situations at any time when you can make good use of the obtained information.
It is an abbreviation of the term Internet Protocol (as it sounds in the full name in English) and represents a number that uniquely identifies a network interface in a computer network using the IP protocol. It is therefore used to distinguish network interfaces connected to a computer network, it can be, for example, a router, a network card (Ethernet, Wi-Fi), IrDA port or virtual devices (loopback, interface for a virtual computer, etc.). Using the IP protocol, all devices actually communicate with each other via the Internet. The data are transmitted between network interfaces in the form of IP datagrams.
The answer is very simple - without an IP address it is not possible to communicate with the device, connect it or control it. So if you forget the IP address of your home router (you wrote it down somewhere and you just can't find the damn piece of paper now), it's not possible to reconnect to it and adjust its settings, which is quite a trouble. But don't be in despair, if you know how to do it, you can find out the address of the device (in this case of the router) and then it will be after the problem! So how to do it?
You have two options at your disposal, so you will definitely choose the one that will seem more feasible. And if it doesn't happen just in case, all that remains is to go the other way. You will definitely reach your goal, you need to proceed slowly, prudently and follow this procedure:
When you are selecting the adapter you are using for the connected router, select depending on the used connection - Ethernet (if you are connected via a network cable) or Wi-Fi adapter (if you are using a wireless Wi-Fi connection)
These procedures are quite universal, in addition to Windows 10, they can also be used for Windows 8.1 and Windows 7.
Artificial intelligence writes poems but struggles with math. Why can't ChatGPT and other chatbots handle even basic arithmetic? We reveal the causes of AI's mathematical mistakes, from tokenization which breaks numbers into unintelligible fragments, to the statistical learning approach that fails in mathematics.
Meta introduced Orion, the world's most advanced AR glasses. They combine the appearance of regular glasses with augmented reality capabilities. With a holographic display and integrated AI, they open new possibilities for interaction with the digital world. In addition, they allow hands-free video calls, display messages, and provide real-time contextual information.
Children's safety on the internet is largely the responsibility of parents. Therefore, we have prepared a comprehensive guide to protecting children online. You'll learn how to communicate openly with them about risks, set boundaries, and protect their privacy.
A new study has revealed a worrying fact: Starlink satellites from SpaceX, intended to provide internet, produce disruptive radio emissions that threaten space observations by radio telescopes. Emissions from the second generation of Starlinks are up to 30 times stronger than the previous generation, posing a serious problem for astronomers.
Do you feel like constant scrolling is consuming you? Like you can't get anything done except spend time on your phone? There's no shame in this, but something needs to be done about it. We'll show you how to do an effective digital detox that will help you rediscover the magic of the offline world.
OpenAI has introduced a new series of AI models called o1, which promise a revolution in complex thinking and problem-solving. The o1 models excel in fields such as science, programming, and mathematics, achieving results comparable to those of doctoral students. OpenAI has also focused on safety and developed a new training approach to prevent AI misuse.
