What are the common router default DHCP IP address ranges?

Writer Emily Wong

I'm trying to find out what the default DHCP ranges are for common routers. Does anyone know?

They will only be within

 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 (10/8 prefix) 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 (172.16/12 prefix) 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 (192.168/16 prefix)

And that's not just the defaults, that's all you can set them to too. Those are the 3 private IP ranges. As specified by RFC 1918

Now, as far as what is common. That could change in future. But from what i've seen, the 192.168/16 range is most common.

Second to that is the 10/8 range. I've seen that too, as you have. It's not uncommon

And I've never seen a router set to use anything on 172.16/12 but they could.

The vast majority are set to 192.168.1/24. Additionally, some also default to 192.168.0/24 and then there are a very small number that default to 10.1.1/24 or 10.0.0/24.

(The final octet of the gateway IP {the router's IP address} is almost always .1, although I've seen a few that were defaulted to .254 over the years.)
