What is 10.0.0.1 and How it Works?
10.0.0.1 is used by modem manufacturers as class A IP address, which is the default gateway of modems. The definition that we often see as LAN or Local Area Network is the referenced connection protocol established for the servers or computers that are physically close to each other to share data between them. The connection that the modem and the computer must establish to exchange data differs according to the manufacturers.
However, even if they have different IP addresses, they use certain IP addresses. These IP addresses are in certain groups and in classes such as A, B, C. Class A rope is arranged as 10.0.0.1 and above. This IP address must be unique and unique in the local network where it is located.
Therefore, only one device with an IP address of 10.0.0.1 can be found. This IP address is used to access the interface of many modems. In this way, you can provide the internet connection of the computer by making the necessary modem settings.
You can establish your personal network connection using the 10.0.0.1 IP address. The only and important condition for this is that this IP address can be used for a single device. In a modem with factory settings and 10.0.0.1 IP address, this setting is registered as root, ie administrator.
In this case, only the modem needs to be connected to the computer via the LAN cable. After the connection is established, the page prepared for the interface of the modem can be reached using the 10.0.0.1 IP address.
What can be done through 10.0.0.1?
It is used to set up a local network and connect two servers in this network. This is usually the port used to connect the computer, such as a modem, to the necessary internet connection between the hardware required to connect the computer to the internet and the necessary data exchange. This is because most of the modem manufacturers use this class A IP address as the default network address.
The local area connection required to connect any hardware to the computer or server can be established privately. During this installation, assigning the 10.0.0.1 IP to various devices as the default network connection IP address is another preferred use.
The 10.0.0.1 IP address, which is the local side of your connection, is a private address, and when a client is included in your private network, that is, when connected to the Local Area Network, the 10.0.0.1 IP address appears in the TCP / IP gateway. You can check Ping to see if any device is using this IP address on your computer.

In this case, you will need to find or learn the IP address used. You can ping the 10.0.0.1 IP address to see if the 10.0.0.1 IP address is assigned to a device.
To ping, you can access the CMD console screen, which you can access by following the Start / Run / CMD path, also by typing CMD in the search box on the start.
