How do you know? IP-Xiaomi device address: from smartphone to router

Find out. IP-Xiaomi device address may be needed in a variety of situations: from setting up remote access to the Mi TV TV Before diagnosing problems with the Mi Router's Internet connection, however, not everyone knows where to look for this information, especially if it is a gadget with proprietary firmware. MIUI Or smart technology with limited interface.

In this article, we will discuss all the current ways of obtaining IP-Addresses for different types of Xiaomi devices: Android smartphones, Mi TVs TV/Redmi Smart TV, router Mi/Ax Router, smart speakers and cameras, and we'll focus on the nuances that are often overlooked in standard instructions, such as how to find a local one. IP access point mode or why the address may change when reconnecting to the network.

If you need not just to see the numbers, but to understand why it can be useful - at the end of the article you will find practical examples of use. IP-addresses for remote management, port forwarding or conflict resolution in the local network.

1. How to find out. IP-address on Xiaomi smartphone (MIUI)

On smartphones Xiaomi, Redmi or POCO firmware MIUI There are several ways to look at the current IP-The easiest one is through the Wi-Fi settings, but it only works for active connectivity. IP mobile-network (3G/4G/5G), We will have to use alternative methods.

To find out local IP (inside your network via Wi-Fi:

2. IP-Xiaomi TV address (Mi) TV/Redmi Smart TV)

On Xiaomi TVs, PatchWallโ€™s interface hides many technical details, but itโ€™s not. IP-The address can be found in two ways: through network settings or through the developer menu (if it's on), the second method gives more information, but requires pre-activation.

Method 1: Through standard settings

  1. Open the Settings. โ†’ Network and Internet โ†’ Wi-Fi (or Ethernet if connected via cable).
  2. Select the current network โ†’ Additional settings.
  3. In the block. IP-setting will be a line IP-address (e.g. 192.168.0.102).

Method 2: Developer menu (for advanced users)

  • ๐Ÿ“ก Back to Settings โ†’ Additionally. โ†’ For developers โ†’ Network โ†’ There's a local. IP-address MAC-address.
What to do if IP-TV address not displayed?
If the network settings instead IP-If you have an address that is "Unavailable" or "0.0.0.0", it means that the TV has not received an address from the router. Try: 1. Reboot the router. 2. Manually set static. IP in the settings of the TV (in the same menu "IP-Settings" select "Manual" and enter an address, such as 192.168.1.200, if your router has a range 192.168.1.x). 3. check whether the antivirus or firewall on the router is blocking the output IP (Turn them off temporarily).

If the TV is connected to the Internet through a mobile access point (for example, from a smartphone), it is connected to the Internet. IP It's only going to be visible in the settings of this point on the main device. TV here IP may not be displayed or shown as 192.168.43.x (typical range for distributing the Internet with Android).

3. IP-The address of the Xiaomi router (Mi) Router/Ax)

Xiaomi Routers (Mi Router Series, Ax3600, Ax6000 etc.) have two IP-Local (to access the web interface) and external (to be provided by the provider), the former is always static (typically 192.168.31.1 or 192.168.0.1), and the latter can change when reconnected.

To find out local IP router (needed to enter the control panel):

  • ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Look at the sticker on the underside of the router โ€“ there is an address (for example, the address is indicated, http://192.168.31.1 or miwifi.com).
  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ In the Mi Wi-Fi mobile app (or Xiaomi Home for new models) open the Router tab โ†’ Settings โ†’ State of the network.
  • ๐Ÿ” In Windows: Open the command line (Win) + R โ†’ enter cmd โ†’ Enter) and execute the command: ipconfig Search for the main gateway line - this is it IP your router.

To view the external (public) IP:

  • ๐ŸŒ Go to the router web interface (192.168.31.1), enter the login / password (by default, both fields are admin).
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Go to the Status section โ†’ The Internet (or the Network) โ†’ WAN It's going to be a line. IP-address (e.g. 95.31.128.47).
  • ๐Ÿ”„ If IP begin 100.64.x.x or 10.x.x.x, Your provider is using CGNAT โ€” This means you donโ€™t have a white one" IP, and remote access will require additional configuration (for example, DDNS or VPN).

Make sure that the Internet indicator (WAN) blue-burning|Check that the cable from the provider is connected to the port. WAN (usually colored)|Reset the router with the Reset button (hold 5 seconds)|Update the firmware through the Mi Wi-Fi app

4. IP-Address of Xiaomi smart devices (cameras, speakers, lamps)

Xiaomi smart gadgets (such as Mi Home Security Camera, Mi Smart Speaker speakers, or Yeelight bulbs) donโ€™t usually have their own interface to view. IP. However, it can be recognized through:

Method 1: Appendix Mi Home

  • ๐Ÿ  Open Mi Home, select the right device.
  • ๐Ÿ”ง Tap the three-point menu (โ‹ฎ) โ†’ Settings โ†’ About the device.
  • ๐Ÿ“Œ In some devices IP Displayed in the Local Network section (for example, for Xiaomi Mija cameras).

Method 2: Network scanning

If IP Not visible in the app, use third-party utilities to scan the local network:

  • ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ On PC: Advanced Program IP Scanner (free) or Angry IP Scanner.
  • ๐Ÿ“ฑ On Android: Fing or Network Scanner.

After scanning, look for a device with a name that contains Xiaomi, Mi, or Yeelight. IP will be listed next to MAC-address.

Method 3: Through the router

If your smart device is connected to Mi Router, go to the routerโ€™s web interface (192.168.31.1) and check the list of connected clients:

  1. Additionally. โ†’ Local area network โ†’ Devices (or DHCP โ†’ List of clients).
  2. Find the device by name (e.g. lumi.gateway for the Xiaomi Gateway hub).

๐Ÿ’ก

Xiaomi smart devices are often received IP down DHCP, So it can change after you reboot the router. To fix the address, assign the device a static one. IP in the router settings (section "DHCP โ†’ Reservation of addresses").

5. Why? IP-The address may change and how to fix it

By default, most devices Xiaomi router assigns IP-dynamically address (through protocol) DHCP). This means that after restarting the router or device IP This may change (e.g. from 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.103). For most tasks, this is not critical, but if you configure it, you can do it:

  • ๐Ÿ”Œ Port forwarding (port transfer for camera or server),
  • ๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ Remote access by RDP/SSH,
  • ๐ŸŽฎ Local Game Server (for example, Minecraft),

โ€” static IP becomes a necessary condition.

To secure IP-Address behind Xiaomi device, do the following:

On the Xiaomi router:

  1. Go to the web interface (192.168.31.1).
  2. Go to the Supplementary โ†’ Local area network โ†’ DHCP โ†’ Reservation of addresses.
  3. Find the device on the list MAC-address (e.g, 78:11:DC:XX:XX:XX Xiaomi smartphones).
  4. Specify what you want. IP (For example, 192.168.31.100) and save.

On a Xiaomi smartphone (manual):

  1. Open the Settings. โ†’ Wi-Fi, tap on the current network.
  2. Select Additional โ†’ Settings IP โ†’ Static.
  3. Enter: IP-address: 192.168.31.100 (must be out of range) DHCP router), Gateway: 192.168.31.1 (IP your router), Network Mask: 255.255.255.0, DNS: 8.8.8.8 (Google) or 1.1.1.1 (Cloudflare).

๐Ÿ’ก

Before the appointment of a static IP check the range DHCP on a router (usually 192.168.31.100โ€“192.168.31.200) Choose an address outside this range (e.g. 192.168.31.50) to avoid conflict.

Important: If you assign a static device IP within-range DHCP, The router can give the same address to another gadget, which will lead to conflict and loss of the network.

  • ๐Ÿ“น Assign a static camera IP router-setting.
  • ๐Ÿ”€ Set up port forwarding on the router (e.g. port 80 for port port port port port port port port port port 80 for port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port port HTTP or 554 for RTSP).
  • ๐ŸŒ Use it. DDNS (For example, No-IP service, if you have a dynamic external service. IP.

2. Control of Xiaomi TV over local network

With help. IP-Addresses can be sent to the Mi TV through ADB or specialized applications (e.g. Mi Remote Controller) for example, to turn on the TV over the network, use the command:

adb connect 192.168.31.100:5555


adb shell input keyevent 3

Where 192.168.31.100 โ€” IP 555 is the port of your television and the port of your home. ADB (You need to pre-include in the developer settings).

3. Diagnostics of conflicts in the local network

If two Xiaomi devices are the same IP (For example, after a router is reset, they both lose access to the network to find the "culprit":

  • ๐Ÿ” Go to the routerโ€™s web interface and check the list of connected devices (DHCP โ†’ Clients).
  • ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Find the duplicate. IP manually assign one of the devices another address.

4. Setting up a game server on a Xiaomi smartphone

If you're running Minecraft PE or another local server on your smartphone, other players will need to connect:

  • ๐ŸŽฎ IP your smartphone on a local network (e.g. 192.168.31.105).
  • ๐Ÿ”ข Server port (default for Minecraft - 19132).

Do not forget to open this port in the settings of the router (Portforwarding) and turn off the firewall on your smartphone.

8. Frequent mistakes and how to avoid them

When working with IP-Xiaomi device addresses are common problems that users often face. Here are the most common problems and how to solve them:

Mistake 1: IP-address 169.254.x.x

If your smartphone or your Xiaomi TV is showing IP 169.254.100.50, which means that the device was unable to receive an address from the router (DHCP-Mistakes) Causes and solutions:

  • โšก Router's not giving it away. IP: Reboot it or check the settings DHCP (should be on).
  • ๐Ÿ”Œ Connection problems: If you use a cable, check its integrity.
  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Firewall Blocking: Temporarily disable antivirus on router or device.

Mistake 2: Conflict IP-address

Symptoms: the device connects to Wi-Fi, but the Internet is not working, or the connection periodically disappears.

โš ๏ธ Note: If there are two devices on the network with the same IP, Both of them will lose access to the Internet. To find a conflict, open the command line on your PC and do: arp -a Look for duplicates IP Then manually assign one of the devices a different address.

Error 3: Cannot connect to the device IP

For example, you try to open the web interface of the Xiaomi camera at 192.168.31.100, but the page does not load.

  • ๐Ÿ”’ Port blocked: make sure the router has the right port open (e.g. 80 for the port). HTTP).
  • ๐Ÿšซ The device does not respond: try pinging it (ping 192.168.31.100 in the command line).If packets do not reach, check the network settings on the device itself.
  • ๐Ÿ”„ IP Changed: If you don't have a static IP, The device may have received a different address after the reboot.

Mistake 4: External IP It doesn't open from the Internet.

You have set up port port port port port port port port port on Xiaomi router, but you can't connect to the device from the outside.

  • ๐ŸŒ You have a gray" IP: Check the external address on the site 2ip.ru. If it starts with 10.x.x.x, 100.64.x.x or 192.168.x.x, Your provider is using CGNAT โ€” Port rollover will not work without additional settings (VPN or DDNS).
  • ๐Ÿ”„ Port closed by provider: some operators block incoming connections.
  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Firewall on the device: Turn off the firewall on your smartphone or camera (in) MIUI: Settings โ†’ Annexes โ†’ Permit management โ†’ firewall).
