Router factories use 10.0.0.1 as a class A IP address for the default gateway of
their routers. In its local area network, this address must be unique. There cannot be more than one device with the
IP address of 10.0.0.1. It can be used for setting up your own network and it is also occasionally utilised as the
default local address for some network routers.

How to Access 10.0.0.1
If you'd like to access your router's console, open your browser and type http://10.0.0.1 into your browser's address bar. From here, you'll be able to make all sorts of
changes, both basic and more advanced. Because this is a private IPv4 network address, it is possible for any device
on the network to use 10.0.0.1. As mentioned above, be careful not to assign more
than one device to 10.0.0.1 as this will cause an IP address conflict.
Setting up Your Router Using 10.0.0.1
Setting up your router to use 10.0.0.1 is easy. The most important step is firstly logging into your router's admin
panel. Let's follow these steps:

The DNS is 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4., as provided by Google.

encryption method such as WPE or WPA
Potential Issues with 10.0.0.1
You may encounter some issues when using 10.0.0.1, including an unresponsive gateway device or a
device address assignment problem. For the latter issue, you have to establish a static IP address
for gateways with 10.0.0.1. The gateway device problem is likely down to technical failures. Another issue is
incorrect client address assignment. This happens on Wi-Fi networks where network names and IP
address settings are given to clients automatically. The automated nature causes these glitches. Although they are
rare, they can cause gateway setting corruption.
