What is a static ip address, assign static ip addresses via your router, how to set a static ip address in windows 11, how to set a static ip address in windows 10, how to set a static ip address in windows 7 or 8 using "network connections", set a static ip address in windows vista, set a static ip address in windows xp, key takeaways.
- To set a static IP address in Windows 10 or 11, open Settings -> Network & Internet and click Properties for your active network.
- Choose the "Edit" button next to IP assignment and change the type to Manual.
- Flip the IPv4 switch to "On", fill out your static IP details, and click Save.
Sometimes, it's better to assign a PC its own IP address rather than letting your router assign one automatically. Join us as we take a look at assigning a static IP address in Windows.
A static IP address is manually set to a permanent, fixed address rather than being assigned automatically by your router using a procotol known as Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). DHCP is a handy way for devices to connect to your network more easily, because you don't have to configure IP addressing for each new device yourself. The downside to automatic addressing is that it's possible for a device's IP address to change from time to time, which is why people choose static IPs for certain types of devices. For example:
- You have a device like a home media server that you want to be able to find using the same IP address or host name each time.
- You have certain apps that can only connect to network devices using their IP address. In particular, many older networking apps suffer this limitation.
- You forward ports through your router to devices on your network. Some routers play nice with port forwarding and dynamic IP addresses; others do not.
Whatever your reason, assigning static IP addresses to devices is not difficult, but you do have a choice to make---whether to do it from the router or on the device itself.

While this article covers assigning static IP addresses to PCs within Windows itself, there is another way to go about it. Many routers allow you to assign a pool of IP addresses that are handed out to specific devices (based on the device's physical, or MAC address). This method offers a couple of significant advantages:
- IP addresses are still managed by the router, meaning that you won't have to make (and keep up with) changes on each individual device.
- It's easier to assign addresses within the same IP address pool your router uses.
This article is about assigning static IP addresses directly to PCs running Windows. We've already got a great guide on How to Set Static IP Addresses On Your Router , so if that's the way you want to go, be sure to give it a read.
With all that in mind, though, let's take a look at how to assign static IP addresses within any version of Windows.

To set a static IP address in Windows 11, you'll want to open Settings, go to Network & Internet, and then find the Properties for your network. Inside there you'll be able to click the Edit button for IP Assignment and then fill out the manual network details.
First, open up the Settings app and then find Network & Internet on the left-hand side. You'll be presented with a panel that shows your current network connection. You can click where it says "Properties" right underneath the network, or if you have multiple network connections you can drill down into the specific network to see the IP address details for each one . In this case it's called "Ethernet", but you will most likely see "Wi-Fi" as the option to choose.
Once you've drilled down into the network connection that you want to set a manual IP for, scroll down until you see "IP Assignment" and then click the Edit button to the right.
Once there, you'll flip the drop-down to "Manual" and switch the IPv4 switch to "On". At this point you can fill out your network details and click Save to finish.
You can also use the old-school Network Connections panel in Windows 11, so if you prefer to use that method, keep reading.
If you're interested in more advanced networking, you might need to set up a static TCP/IP route , reset the entire TCP/IP stack on Windows , check open TCP/IP ports , find your MAC address on Windows , or find your IP address from the Command Prompt . We've got you covered there too.
To set a static IP address in Windows 10, you'll need to open the Settings app and drill down to Network & Internet. From there you'll select Properties for your network, and then the Edit button next to IP Assignment where you can input a manual IP address.
First, open the Settings app and locate the Network & Internet button.
On the next screen you'll see your network status, which should show you your active network. Here you'll want to click the Properties button. If you have multiple different networks, you could select them from the left-hand menu---in our case you'll notice we have both Wi-Fi and Ethernet networks, so you'll want to pick the one that you are trying to set a manual IP address for. You'll notice this is the same method we use when we're trying to find an IP address on Windows 10 .
On the network properties screen, scroll down until you see "IP settings" and click the Edit button under "IP assignment".
In the resulting popup window, change the Edit IP settings dropdown to Manual and then flip the IPv4 switch to "On". Fill out the details, click Save, and you should be good to go.
You might need to reboot to get all of your applications to work properly, just because it's Windows.
It's worth noting that you can use the old Network Connections method to set an IP address in any version of Windows, so if you prefer that method, keep reading.
To change the computer's IP address in Windows 7, you'll need to open the "Network Connections" window. Hit Windows+R, type "ncpa.cpl" into the Run box, and then hit Enter.
In the "Network Connections" window, right-click the adapter for which you want to set a static IP address, and then select the "Properties" command.
In the properties window for the adapter, select "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)" and then click the "Properties" button.
Select the "Use the following IP address" option, and then type in the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway that corresponds with your network setup. Next, type in your preferred and alternate DNS server addresses. Finally, select the "Validate settings upon exit" option so that Windows immediately checks your new IP address and corresponding information to ensure that it works. When you're ready, click the "OK" button.
And then close out of the network adapter's properties window.
Windows automatically runs network diagnostics to verify that the connection is good. If there are problems, Windows will give you the option of running the Network troubleshooting wizard. However, if you do run into trouble, the wizard likely won't do you too much good. It's better to check that your settings are valid and try again.
Changing your IP from DHCP to a Static address in Vista is similar to other versions of Windows, but getting to the correct location is a bit different. Open the Start Menu, right-click on Network, and select Properties.
The Network and Sharing Center opens...click on Manage network connections.
Right-click on the network adapter you want to assign an IP address and click Properties.
Highlight Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) then click the Properties button.
Now change the IP, Subnet mask, Default Gateway, and DNS Server Addresses. When you're finished click OK.
You'll need to close out of Local Area Connection Properties for the settings to go into effect.
Open the Command Prompt and use the
command to verify that the changes were successful.
To set a Static IP in Windows XP, right-click the "My Network Places" icon, and then select "Properties."
Right-click the adapter for which you want to set the IP, and then select "Properties" from the context menu.
Select the "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" entry, and then click the "Properties" button.
Select the "Use the following IP address" option. Type in the IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS server addresses you want to use. When you're finished, click the "OK" button.
You will need to close out of the adapter's properties window before the changes go into effect.
And you can verify your new settings by using the
command at the command prompt.
By and large, it's better to let most of your devices have their IP addresses assigned automatically by your router. Occasionally, though, you might want to set a static IP address for a particular device. While you can set static IP addresses directly on your devices (and this article has shown you how to do just that on Windows PCs), we still recommending setting up static IP addressing on your router if possible. It will just make life easier.

How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To)
We'll help you properly configure your network
When you connect to a local network, the device you’re using is given an IP address, allowing other devices to find and communicate with it, as well as signifying that the device itself has correctly authenticated. The larger the network, the more IP addresses that will be in use, which can cause some allocation issues.
In most cases, IP address allocation is determined by your local router, so to change your IP address on a Windows 10 PC, you’ll need to configure your network as a whole. Alternatively, you may want to set a static IP address , or change your public IP address for all your devices. To change your IP, here’s what you’ll need to do.
![Change-IP-Address-Windows-Featured - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 1](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/Change-IP-Address-Windows-Featured.png)
Why Change Your IP Address On Windows?
There are a couple of reasons why you might want to change your IP address.
Typically, a local network router will allocate a temporary IP address to your device when you connect using DHCP (the protocol used to assign IP addresses), giving it a temporary lease to that address. When the lease runs out, it will need to be renewed, otherwise you could be allocated a new address.
![Windows-IP-PowerShell - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 2](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/Windows-IP-PowerShell.png)
While this usually happens automatically, problems can sometimes occur. A poorly configured or busy local network, along with misconfigured devices, might result in the same IP address being allocated twice, causing conflicts.
If this happens, you may wish to set a static IP address, giving your device a permanent address. You’ll want to do this for devices that are regularly accessed by other devices, such as home servers or network attached storage devices .
These all apply for local networks, but you may want to change the IP address given to you by your internet service provider. This can be trickier to do, but there are a few ways to change this address if your ISP allows it.
Configuring Your Network Router DHCP Settings
One of the easiest ways to change your IP address is to configure your network router to assign a new IP address. To do this, you should configure the DHCP settings on your router to assign IP addresses differently.
You could, for instance, set a static allocation for your Windows PC. When your device connects, your router will always assign the same IP address to it by using your device’s MAC address to identify it.
![Windows-MAC-Address - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 3](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/Windows-MAC-Address.png)
If you don’t want to do this, you could also change the IP range used by your local router. This means that your local IP address may still change from time to time, but the range of addresses will be different. Your IP address may change from 192.168.0.10 to 192.168.10.10 , for instance.
![TPLink-DHCP - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 4](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/TPLink-DHCP.png)
To do this, you’ll need to access your router’s administration page. This will vary by device, but typically, many local routers can be accessed by typing http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1 from your web browser. Consult your user manual for the correct username and password to use here.
The steps to change your DHCP settings will also vary, but you’ll typically find DHCP settings listed under its own section (eg. DHCP ), while fixed IP allocations can be found under address allocation or similar.
![TPLink-Fixed-Allocation - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 5](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/TPLink-Fixed-Allocation.png)
Releasing DHCP Lease and Resetting Your Dynamic IP
Any changes you make to your router’s DHCP settings may require you to release or renew your Windows IP address using the Windows PowerShell.
- To do this from the Windows PowerShell, right-click the Start menu and click the Windows PowerShell (Admin) option.
![Windows-Launch-PowerShell-1 - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 6](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/Windows-Launch-PowerShell-1.png)
- In the PowerShell terminal window, type ipconfig /release to release your DHCP lease and disconnect. With your new settings in place, type ipconfig /renew to reconnect.
![Windows-Renew-IP - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 7](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/Windows-Renew-IP.png)
If your router settings have been correctly changed, releasing your DHCP lease and resetting your IP will result in a new IP address being allocated to your device.
Setting a Static IP Address On Windows 10
A static IP address can be achieved through a fixed DHCP allocation, but you can also set this manually in your Windows 10 settings. You may want to do this if you’re making a direct connection to another device.
This may also work with your local router, but as your device is already being assigned an IP using DHCP, an IP conflict may occur. In this case, it’s better to use a fixed IP allocation to do this instead.
- To set a static IP address, open your network settings by right-clicking the Start menu and clicking the Network Connections option.
![Windows-Launch-Network-Connections - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 8](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/Windows-Launch-Network-Connections.png)
- In the Network Connections settings menu, press the Change connection properties option.
![Windows-Change-Connection-Properties - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 9](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/Windows-Change-Connection-Properties.png)
- Under the IP Settings category, press the Edit option.
![Windows-Edit-IP-Settings - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 10](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/Windows-Edit-IP-Settings.png)
- Change the IP allocation type to Manual . Enable either IPv4 or IPv6 , then type the static IP settings you wish to apply. An example configuration for an static IPv4 IP address would include 192.168.0.10 for IP address, 24 for subnet prefix length, and 192.168.0.1 for gateway (referring to your local router) and preferred DNS server. Click Save once you’re done.

Once saved, your IP address settings will be applied automatically. You may need to release your existing IP using the steps above or restart your PC for the changes to take effect fully.
Change Your Public IP Address On Windows 10
Your public IP address is the address assigned by your internet service provider, giving you access to the internet. This is assigned to your modem (which is usually combined with your network router, but not always), allowing all other connected network devices to the internet, too.
Changing this address can sometimes be difficult. You’ll need to check if you’re assigned a dynamic (temporary) or static IP address by your ISP first. If you’re assigned a static public IP, your ISP will need to change this for you.
![Public-IP-VPN - Help Desk Geek How To Change Your IP Address On Windows 10 (& Why You’d Want To) image 12](https://helpdeskgeek.com/wp-content/pictures/2020/08/Public-IP-VPN.png)
For dynamic IP addresses, you can usually reset this by switching your network modem off for a period of time. By doing this, you’re disconnecting your device from your ISP.
As with your local network, your public IP lease will eventually run out, meaning you may be allocated a new IP address at this point. However, this isn’t guaranteed to work, and you may need to try another method.
If your public IP address won’t change, there are other methods you could try. Using a virtual private network , will hide your public IP as you browse online, for instance.
Configuring Your Network On Windows 10
Whether you’re configuring a server for your network (or for wider internet users), or you just want to free up allocations for other devices, it’s an easy process to change your IP address on Windows 10, although much of the work relies on being able to access your router to properly configure your network.
If your network configuration is causing problems, you may wish to reset your network router to wipe the slate clean and start again. IP allocation issues might be why you’re struggling with network connection issues, but thankfully, there are several ways to fix unidentified network problems on Windows 10.

This wikiHow teaches you how to change both your public IP address and your private IP address on a Windows computer. Your public IP address is the address that your computer broadcasts to other networks, while your private IP address is your computer's specific address within your own wireless network. Changing either of these may fix connection issues.

How to Set up Static IP Address on Windows 10
You can set up a static IP address for your Windows 10 computer from the network adapter settings. Follow these steps to setup static IP address.
When you connect to a network, more often than not, you will automatically get an IP address from the router or your ISP (Internet Service Provider). This is called a dynamic IP address. In case you don’t know, a dynamic IP address means that the IP address can change every time you reconnect to that same network. For most people, this is not a big deal, and never have to worry. However, if you want to reliably connect to a local network or if your ISP requires you to configure a specific IP address, set up a static IP address on Windows 10 .
For example, my ISP uses an additional layer of authentication besides the MAC address . In order to connect to my ISP’s network, I have to configure the static IP address given to me by them. Otherwise, I cannot connect to the ISP network to access the internet.
The good thing is, Windows 10 makes it very easy to change IP address to set a static IP address. All you have to do is open the adapter settings and setup the static IP address.
In this quick and short Windows guide, let me show you the steps to set the static IP address on Windows 10.
Note: Before making changes, make sure you are connected to the network.
Set static IP address on Windows 10
To set a static IP address on Windows 10, follow the steps given below.
- Open the Settings app.
- Click on “Network & Internet.”
- Select the “Status” tab on the sidebar.
- Click on the “Properties” button in the right panel.
- Scroll down and click “Edit” the “IP Settings” section.
- Turn on the “IPv4” option.
- Type the IP address, Subnet, Gateway, and Preferred DNS addresses.
- Click on the “Save” button.
In Windows 10, you can set the static IP address from the Settings app. First, open the Settings app with “Win + I” keyboard shortcut. Go to the “Network & Internet -> Status” page. On the right panel, click on the “Properties” button under the active connection.
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 open network properties](https://i0.wp.com/windowsloop.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/open-network-properties-280221.jpg?resize=818%2C453&ssl=1)

From now on, Windows should connect to the network with the static IP address. If Windows is still using a dynamic IP address, restart the system. Doing so should apply the changes you just made.
That is all. It is that simple to set up a static IP address in Windows 10. If you are stuck or need some help, comment below and I will try to help as much as possible.

How to find your IP address
Final thoughts, you might also like....
Do you want to take control of your home or office network? Accessing your router settings opens up a world of possibilities, allowing you to customize and manage various aspects of your network experience.
By navigating through your router's configurations, you can fine-tune wireless settings, strengthen security, troubleshoot issues, and create a network tailored to your needs. In this guide, we'll walk you through the steps to access your router settings, including how to find your IP address. Are you ready to optimize your network for peak performance? Let's dive in!
- A router
- A device connected to the router via Ethernet or Wi-Fi
- Your IP address
You can find your IP address by looking at the router itself or checking your computer or mobile phone. We'll cover seven of the most common options: Router, Windows, Linux, Chromebook, Mac, Android, and iPhone.
Step-by-step guide for how to access router settings
1. find password.
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 Screenshot showing the bottom of a router with the default password and pin highlighted.](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/PPAzmARGHf4AvGN5j9Ftpm-320-80.jpg)
Next, you'll need your username and password. If you haven't changed these, the default credentials are usually found in the router's manual or on a sticker on the router itself.
Some routers also use a WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) PIN as a security feature to facilitate connecting devices to a Wi-Fi network. If your router has this, make a note of this as well.
If you can't find your username, password, or PIN, there are a few other options you can try.
You can visit the official website of the router manufacturer. Many manufacturers provide default login information for their routers on their websites. If you can't find the information online, contact the manufacturer's customer support, who may be able to provide you with the default login credentials.
If all else fails, you can perform a factory reset on your router. Keep in mind that this will erase all custom configurations, and you'll need to set up your router again. To reset the router, locate the reset button on your router. It is usually a small button that may require a paperclip or a similar tool to press. Press and hold the reset button for about 10-15 seconds until the router lights flash. Release the reset button, and the router will reboot to its factory settings.
3. Open your router settings page
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 Screenshot showing Virgin Media Super Hubhome page](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/BKQtPVXaM4ufmMCFaiFCbJ-320-80.jpg)
Open a web browser like Chrome, Firefox, or Safari, and type the router's IP address into the address bar of your web browser.
You should now see the login page for your router. The example in the screenshot shows the Virgin Media Super Hub. You will see the router access page for your provider.
Enter your password and username or PIN.
4. Access router settings and make changes
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 Screenshot showing Virgin Media Super Hubhome page](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/YNiLqEfYpdzUVcm2XxxXkJ-320-80.jpg)
Once logged in, you will have access to the router's settings. The layout and options may vary, but common settings include wireless settings, security options, and network configurations.
You can configure various settings, such as Wi-Fi passwords, security protocols, port forwarding, and more. Be cautious while making changes, as incorrect settings can affect your network's functionality.
After making any changes, remember to log out of the router's interface for security reasons.
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 Screenshot showing how to find IP address and Gateway details - from the hub](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/djbokFFDm36u6tdCwHfMpk-320-80.jpg)
Check on your router itself to see if it displays the router IP address we need to access the settings page. You should also make a note of the password and PIN, as we're going to need that later on.
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 Screenshot showing how to find IP address and Gateway details in Windows](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/VQpgaVhudDvshPUHtQqk2m-320-80.jpg)
You can find your router IP address on a Windows device in the command prompt window.
To open the Windows Command Prompt, click the Start button (Windows icon) in the bottom-left corner of your screen. Type Command Prompt or cmd into the search bar. Select Command Prompt from the search results.
Type ipconfig /all and press enter. Under the heading Wireless LAN or similar, you'll see an IP address next to Default Gateway. This is your router IP address.
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 Screenshot showing how to find IP address and Gateway details in Linux](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/a5GDurQLdwNMaGD5KF4QEm-320-80.jpg)
To find out your Router IP address, you'll need to open the terminal.
Methods for opening the terminal vary slightly depending on which Linux distro you're using, but you should be able to access it from your applications or by entering Ctrl + Alt + T.
Once inside the terminal, type ip r and hit return. The first IP address returned will be your Router IP address.
4. Chromebook
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 Screenshot showing how to find IP address and Gateway details on a Chromebook](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/tSTNfm9LxGdmvZjc6ipzQm-320-80.jpg)
To get your router's IP address on a ChromeOS device, click the clock at the bottom right of your screen and select the gear icon. Click Network, then Wi-Fi. Select your Wi-Fi router. You'll find the router's IP address next to Gateway.
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 screenshot showing how to find the ip addressand gateway on a Mac](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/WJjjRxZa72MFCHLNnxhdWD-320-80.jpg)
If you're using a MacOS device, go to System Settings and Network: Wi-Fi. Click Details on your connection, and you'll find the address next to Router.
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 Screenshot showing how to find IP address and Gateway details on an Android phone](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/7BUkVtE264jV4YhYrrkzkm-320-80.jpg)
Open the Settings app on your Android device and select the Wi-Fi or Network and Internet option. Find the connected Wi-Fi network and tap on it, then look for an option like Network details. The exact wording may vary depending on your device. Your router IP address will be displayed here. It may be called the Gateway or Router IP.
![how to set an ip address in windows 10 Screenshot showing how to find IP address and Gateway details on an iPhone](https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/pw7hugnvnLQkLWu6vYqRvm-320-80.jpg)
Open the Settings app on your iPhone and navigate to Wi-Fi Settings. Find the connected Wi-Fi network and tap the (i) icon next to its name. This icon is typically located on the right side of the network name. In the network details, look for the Router or Gateway field. This field contains the IP address of your router.
Now that you've successfully accessed your router settings, you can take a closer look at your network settings and modify them to suit your preferences and requirements.
You can strengthen your network's security by updating Wi-Fi passwords, changing security protocols, and enabling features like MAC address filtering. You can also keep an eye on the list of connected devices to your network. This enables you to detect unauthorized devices and troubleshoot any connectivity issues.
You can also set up port forwarding, check firmware, and prioritize network traffic using Quality of Service (QoS) settings.
However, you should remember that making changes to your router settings should be approached with caution. Incorrect configurations can impact your network's functionality. Always refer to your router's documentation for guidance, and if in doubt, consult your router manufacturer's support. After making adjustments, ensure you log out of the router's interface to uphold security measures.
