Raspberry Pi - Find IP Address and Connect with SSH from Windows 10
On this page we are going to show you how to find the IP address of a Raspberry Pi and connect to it using SSH from a Windows 10 desktop.
Make sure you have Nmap:
-
Make sure you are on the same network
Find your IP address, Open the “Command Prompt” and use the following command:
ipconfig
- Launch Nmap
- Specify your target IP range
- Select “ping scan”
- Click scan
-
You should see a list of hosts in the output with the IP of the Raspberry Pi identified.
- Download and install Putty ( or use powershell instead )
- Fill in your hostname/IP. Optionally customize and save a session if you want.
- Connect
- Enter your username and password.
NOTE - Alternatively you could use powershell to connect instead of putty ( this is way better ). It allows you to just type ssh similar to what you would do on a Mac or Linux host.
