Router problem

March 25th, 2009, 7:26 am

Im not able to get into my router's interface. I changed my IP of my router to 192.168.1.100 a long time back because im using a modem whose ip is 192.168.1.1 so for portforwarding they both had to be in the same address like 192.168.1.xxx . Anyway, Right now my Router's Wireless is not working plus when i try to login to the router the login page just doesnt open. I tried 192.168.1.100 and i also tried 192.168.0.1 which was the default address of the router. After everything failed i resetted the router using the button at the back and even that did not help. So can you guys help me out here ?

If you reset the router, the default IP is 192.168.1.1 not 192.168.0.1

My modem is 192.168.1.1.. While my router was 192.168.0.1 so i had to change the ip of my router so that port forwarding would work.

I have 2 routers you can say, First its a Shiro Modem which is also a router, Then i have a DLink Router connected which has 4 ports and is also wireless.

then hook directly to the Dlink and then try 192.168.0.1 (which is the default for Dlink and Netgear. Linksys is 192.168.1.1)

You should be able to connect that way and change the settings to what you want.

Tried that too. Doesnt work ...

By directly you mean connecting the PC on the LAN port of the router and have all the other computers and modem disconnected right ? I've tried that but it still doesnt open the page

In your Network Properties for your connection under TCP/IP do you have it configured to automatically obtain an IP Address and DNS servers or did you have everything manually configured? If you had it manually configured, set everything to automatic, reboot and try again.

You can also go to a command prompt and type ipconfig /all to get a list of your current configuration. Posting it here might help spark some ideas to help.

Yeah i have it all manually set up because i wanted to forward ports. Here's what ipconfig says:

Windows IP Configuration

Primary Dns Suffix . . . . . . . :

I removed the Mac address though, I heard its not safe to post that.

Okey yeah after i reset the settings on TCP IP it worked, I got logged in the router but when i had set everything to be obtained automatically internet stopped working so i had to put all the settings back in there and thankfully now i can enter the router modem after entering the settings as well. Wireless is still not working though

If that was manually configured also you'll probably have to do similar with it.

Not sure what you mean?

I did the settings and everything but my PSP just wont detect an Access point. That has never happened before i always had an access point showing on my PSP even when i just brought the router and plugged it straight away without any settings or anything it still showed me an access point.

I don't know anything about how a PSP aquires a network address. I assume you've rebooted it? Somebody else is going to have to answer that part of your problem though cause I know nothing about them

Good luck

Well the PSP connects pretty much the same way as a computer would connect to the wireless connection, But its not picking up an Access point, Neither is my PS3 and neither is my laptop.

sounds like your router isn't broadcasting then. Perhaps a problem with the router? I seriously doubt the radio would be disabled in the router by default, but I don't use Dlink so I don't know how they are set up.

Yeah im pretty sure its a problem with the router, not sure what to do.
