Method 2 of 3:

Using the Mobile App

  1. 1
    Open the Roku mobile app on your phone or tablet. This app icon is the word "Roku" in purple text.
  2. 2
    Tap the gear icon. You may need to make sure you have the Channels tab selected.
    • If you have more than one Roku, tap the Devices tab first, then tap the three-dot icon next to the Roku you're trying to get the IP address for, then tap View System Info.

Method 3 of 3:

Using Chrome

  1. 1
    Go to the Remoku extension page in Chrome on your computer. You can use any computer on the same network as your Roku to get the addon and find your Roku's IP address.
    • This method doesn't always work, and will only work if your network IP address is similar to 192.168.1. But, it's worth a try if the other two methods don't work for you.
  2. 2
    Click Add to Chrome. Clicking this will install the extension so you can use it to find your Roku's IP address.
  3. 3
    Click the extension icon. It should be a black square with an "R" inside it located in the top right corner of your browser window.
    • If you don't see it there, click the puzzle-piece icon to see a list of all your installed extensions and make sure it's enabled.
  4. 4
    Click Scan. This button is to the right of the "How Many Rokus" question in the "Find My Roku" section.
    • If the extension is successful, you'll see a list of Roku's and their IP addresses.
