htaccess rewrite based on IP or domain – CPanel

I’m using Codeigniter, now the rewrite is working fine for accessing using domain name, here is the default Codeigniter htaccess:

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

But I want to make it able to access using IP address as well and I host my website in a shared hosting with cPanel, so the IP address will be something like this: http://11.11.11.11/~username. But it just not working when I access using IP, I had tried adding a RewriteBase and also something like: 

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ ~username/index.php?/$1 [L]

and 

RewriteRule ^~username/(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

but non of them work. Anyone please help? Thank you.

    Ok I just found the solution, I should check the host so that RewriteBase only will work properly:

    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.domain.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

RewriteBase /~username/
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^11.11.11.11 [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L]

    Ping,

    Unfortunately, you can not use IP as host while you’r on shared hosting. Share hosting shared single IP for multiple websites.

    You need dedicated hosting or VPS for your purpose.
