The present application relates to the field of wireless communication, and provides a method and a device for determining a TTL value of a node in a multi-hop network. The method includes: selecting a target node, sending, by the target node, a packet for requesting node state to a node in the multi-hop network based on a currently planned TTL value, and acquiring the node state to extract a unicast address feedback list; matching unicast addresses in the unicast address feedback list with unicast addresses in a unicast address scan list, and configuring the currently planned TTL value as the TTL value of the packet sent by the target node when it is determined that the unicast addresses in both lists are consistent. For the method and the device for determining a TTL value of a node in the multi-hop network according to the present application.
