The IP address is generally expressed in a set of numbers like 180.167.12.1, and the sequence of numbers differs from one device to another. You can easily locate the IP address on your devices like mobile phones, PCs, TVs, and many more. In Roku TV, you can get the IP address from the Settings menu or by using the remote app.
