Many people run into the same problem when setting up their home router — they type 192.168.0.105 into the browser, but the login page won’t open.
Don’t panic — this issue is actually very common. It doesn’t mean your router is broken or that your internet is down. Let’s take a look at why this happens and how you can fix it step by step.
Why the Router Login Page at 192.168.0.105 Won’t Open
First, it’s important to understand that 192.168.0.105 is usually not your router’s default login address.
It looks like a local IP address, but in most cases, it’s automatically assigned to a device on your network — such as your phone, laptop, or smart TV — instead of the router itself.
In simple terms, 192.168.0.105 is likely your device’s private IP address. Your router’s real admin address might be something like 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1.
So when you type http://192.168.0.105 into your browser, you’re actually trying to connect to your own device rather than the router — which is why the page doesn’t load.
How to Find the Correct Router Login Address
Finding the right login address is simple. You can try the following methods:
1. Check the label on your router
Flip the router over — there’s usually a sticker on the bottom that lists the “Default Access” or “Login Address,” along with the default username and password (often “admin” or left blank).
Different brands use different default addresses. For example:
- TP-Link: 192.168.1.1
- Tenda: 192.168.0.1
- ASUS: router.asus.com
- Xiaomi: 192.168.31.1
- Mercury: 192.168.1.1
This printed address is the official login page for your router.

2. Check the gateway address on your phone or computer
On a computer:
Open the Command Prompt (CMD), type ipconfig, and look for “Default Gateway.” The number next to it is your router’s login IP address.
On a smartphone:
Go to Wi-Fi → tap the connected network → look for “Router” or “Gateway.” The number shown there is your router’s correct address.
Once you find the right address, type it in your browser’s address bar — for example, 192.168.1.1, 192.168.3.1, or 192.168.100.1 — press Enter, and then log in with your username and password to access the admin panel.
