Windows Forum / Windows XP / Networking and Web / September 2007Access Router
Hi I have XP Pro, I have two PC's connected to a Wireless Router, but they are connected by cable not Wireless, it is a Belkin Router but I do not have Belkin software installed as I prefer to let Windows manage the Network. Is there some way I can access the Router, the address in the Belkin manual, 192.168.2.1 does not work. Perhaps there is some software that will allow me to access the Router. Any Ideas. thanks Daniel The address should be: http://192.168.1.1 OR http://192.168.0.1 You don't need any software to access this address but you do need a cable CAT 5 or yellow crossover type! hth > Hi > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > Daniel The Belkin Manual says 192.168.2.1, but I tried your numbers and they do not work either. regards Daniel > The address should be: > [quoted text clipped - 27 lines] >> >> Daniel Did you change the factoy defaults? I suggest insert a pin/paper clip in the small hole in the router and keep it there for about 10 seconds to reset the router to factory settings. Then try using the default address http://192.168.2.1 Do you get any errors? Is the router plugged in to the power? hth > The Belkin Manual says 192.168.2.1, but I tried your > numbers and they do not work either. > > regards Hi I am concerned that if I reset the Router, I will not be able to reconfigure it, since I cannot access it. BTW, the Router is working okay, my PC's are not Networked but do share internet connection through the Router. cheers Daniel > Did you change the factoy defaults?

I unplugged the router and the modem for 10 minutes, plugged them back in again and tried to access the modem, but this did not work. I am concerned that if I reset the modem and cannot connect I will be without internet connections for both PC's. regards Daniel > what is this router plugged in TO? > [quoted text clipped - 79 lines] > http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/meetexperts/bowman.mspx > http://blogs.digitalmediaphile.com/barb/ again, what I asked you to do is disconnect the router from the modem and power cycle the router when it is not connected to the modem. do not connect the router to the modem. now boot the computer with a wired connection to the router. do not plug the router into the modem. >Barb > [quoted text clipped - 93 lines] >> http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/meetexperts/bowman.mspx >> http://blogs.digitalmediaphile.com/barb/ -- Barb Bowman MS Windows-MVP http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/expertzone/meetexperts/bowman.mspx http://blogs.digitalmediaphile.com/barb/ Barb my apologies for misunderstanding your advice but my excuse is that is was after midnight and I needed some sleep. BUT, I have done what you asked and it worked, I have also reconnected the Modem and it still works. I have been able to access the Router and reset the security password (key) which is what I have been wanting to do.
