Cannot access Router Settings via HTTP

[MikeTbob]

Can't think of any other advise ...
and can't write the "//" because of link block.

Use spaces or just remove the http, www and just post the actually address, it'll work.

is needed when you use different ports for the connection.
I ll try the space trick next time *gg*

nmap shows a lot of nothing, and like I said before 192.168.2.1 just times out when trying to access it from a browser or anything else. On a whim I walked over to my roommates side of the room and launched up his PS3 to see what Default Gateway it gets from the router, and it is as well 192.168.1.1 I would have used his laptop to get onto the router but i guess he took it when he went home for xmas.

Well I know it's a dumb question but I'm gonna ask it anyway......have you looked on the modem itself to see if it has any instructions? Mine has the setup address and a default password listed right on the side of the modem.

[Shouboushi]

No question is a stupid question when it comes to technology... But I did already check that, and i just double checked it and there isnt any default instructions on either the router or the modem. I might just have to wait until my roommate gets back from texas to get the router key. But i'm still curious to know why i can't connect to the router, when i had windows on this machine it worked perfectly fine

Some routers firmware simply does not allow alternative browsers nor likely alternative operating systems. My cheap Airlink router would not even work with Firefox on windows. It requires internet explorer. Possibly router firmware upgrades are an option, upgradable only with windows, but not likely.

Hi,
first:
Have you checked 192.168.1.1 is the address of your computer?
Linux:
route (shows the routes on your computer, the default should be the address of your router)
ifconfig (shows all your network interfaces with their addresses)
Windows: ipconfig

You can try to scan for open ports on your router (nmap).

[ladlers]

Try 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.100.1 . Good luck.
