Knowing the IP address of your internet-enabled devices is important, especially when doing network configurations. All LG smart TVs have their own IP address. The only question is, how can you find it?

You can find the IP address of your LG smart TV through the TV’s Network Settings. To navigate to this screen, use the Menu button on your remote control.

Can I Find My LG TV IP Address Without the Remote?

There are a variety of ways to find your LG TV’s IP address, and not all of them require you to use the remote. If you lose your remote, you can check your IP address with:

  • A wireless mouse
  • Your router
  • The LG TV Plus app

Below, we will discuss how to find your IP address using the three above methods.

Using a Wireless Mouse

You can navigate your TV screen with a wireless keyboard and mouse the same way you would with the remote. All you need to do is plug in the USB key of both devices to the USB port at the back of your LG smart TV. It will connect automatically, and then you can proceed with the steps above to find the IP address.

Through Your Router

You can inspect all the devices connected to your home WiFi network through the router’s settings. That means you can check the IP address of your TV through the router settings. Here’s how to do that:

  • Log in to your router with your phone or laptop browser. Enter your ID and password.
  • Go to your settings and look for a list of connected devices.
  • Look for your LG TV and note the IP address.

This process may vary depending on the router you use. If the method above does not work, refer to your router’s user manual for the exact steps. I am using Google Nest Wifi and the steps were: Select Wifi > Devices > Find the TV > Select the info tab.

Using the LG ThinQ App

You can also check your LG TV’s IP address through the LG ThinQ app, which serves as an alternative to the remote. After installing it from Google’s Play Store or Apple’s App Store, proceed with the following steps:

  • Follow the on-screen instructions to connect the app to the same WiFi network as your LG TV.
  • Go to Device Connector and set it up to TV Control.
  • Enter the PIN code displayed on the TV screen into the app.

After completing the above steps, you will have a digital remote.
