Getting an I.P address issue.? - Alexus Benji - 04-08-2014 07:07 PM

Is it normal to get a 10.1.1.x on a router. I was researching that it did seem wrong even thought I still had internet access. Normally the ip should be (it being a router) something like 192.x.x.x? Please i need help.

A 10. address is perfectly acceptable.

There are three address ranges reserved for private networks. The most common starts with 192.168.x.y but 10.w.x.y is also fine.l

Nope, 10.x.x.x is a valid private IP range. 192.168.x.x is more commonly used, but 10.x.x.x and 172.16-31.x.x are also private addresses that can be used by anyone on their local network.
