Change your Default Gateway
1. Log Into Your FRITZ!Box
- Start by finding the "FRITZ!Box Password" on the underside of your router
- Using one of your devices, open your web browser of choice and go to http://192.168.178.1 (when connected to your router via WiFi or a Wire)
- You'll then be shown a log in screen with an empty "Password" field, enter the found password and click "Log In"
Note: You can also find these steps on our "How To" YouTube Video
2. Home Network
Now you're logged in, select the following menu options:
- "Home Network" on the left-hand side of the page
- "Network" within this
4. IP Address Settings
- To change the IP address of your router we need to alter the "IPv4 Address" to the IP you want your router to have.
- When changing the above, make sure to check that the "Local DNS server" has also changed to your preferred IP.
