Need help accessing the router web page.  I have been told my router is acting like a switch and the IP address is not in the proper range.  I have tried reseting the router (hold for 30 sec and unplug for 5 mins).  Didn't work.
thanks

What router are you using?  Almost all Linksys routers use 192.168.1.1 as the default local IP address, but there is at least one that uses 192.168.16.1 , namely the WTR54GS  (not the WRT54GS).
You need to try again to reset the router to factory defaults.
To reset your router to factory defaults, use the following procedure:
1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
5) Power down the router.
6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out." If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank (note: a few Linksys routers have a default user name of "admin" (with no quotes)), and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
If you get this far without problems, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is dead.
If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. In this case, use the Linksys tftp.exe program to try to reload your router with the latest firmware. After reloading the firmware, repeat the above procedure starting with step 1.
If you need additional help, please state your ISP, the make and model of your modem, your router's firmware version, and the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
Please let me know how things turn out for you.

  • Need help accessing the factory default restore disk - Ideapad b5609

    I am working on a friends PC. It will not start up in normal mode but will start in safe mode. This PC has Windows 7 64 bit installed.
    I don't know whjat he did to this except I used Malwarebytes to remove some malware. After I removed the malware, the PC would not boot in safe mode, but would get stuck at classpnp.sys. I searched for a solution for this and the only thing I could get to work was renaming classpnp.sys to classpnp.old. This allowed the PC to boot in safe mode again but this needs to get fixed.
    What I wanted to do was access the factory default restore disk, back it up to USB ( No dvd's) if possible and reinstall a fresh copy of the system. - But I don't even know if this laptop has a factory restore disk,  Is there one?
    The PC owner says he didn't get a dvd when he bought the PC. This person was born without arms and is not too PC literate. He uses the PC for e-mail and going to porn sites. It's possible he did have a dvd for the PC if it came with one but he just doesn't remember or even knew what it is.
    I do see a Backup and Repair app in the start menu / Maintenence folder but It doesn't start from safe mode. One Key Recovery doesn't work either.. I don't know what it does but I was going to look at it to see if it will help fix the PC.
    I tried a windows system recovery disk, and it says it cannot fix the problem. My friend told me this PC is over a year old so i assume it's out of warrenty. 
    Please help, Thank you.
    Moderator Note; similar threads merged

    I've already removed the malware with malwarebytes and double checked this with the offline version of Defender. The PC is over a year old.. the owner tells me it's not in warrenty. I didn't want to mess up the hidden recovery partition so i installed a fresh copy of windows 7 to C drive. Since I can now boot into C i will try to install and use OneKey recovery to access and reinstall from the hidden partition.
    I understand there is an Enginers version of Onekey Recovery I may have to get if i have problems - it's the version of OKR that the OEM's use to set up the partition in the first place.. from my info anyway..
    This is the second time tryiong to fix it from a fresh install on C drive.  The first time had a Windows.old folder I wanted to try to reinstall stuff from, but on trying to back that up to a external hard drive via USB, the system crashed and said missing master boot record. A StartUp Repair disk ran 6 times could not fix the problem ( same disk I used to install.. told me it didn't find any problems !
    Other odd behavior.. when i was copying the windows.old folder, it didn't tell me i had so many files to go.. always sais it had 0 files left to transfer.
    I couldn't get the sound drivers to work even after downloading the right ones from lenovo. I even let device manager try to reinstall the drivers from the Realtek folder in the windows.old folder - those should have worked - and the pc told me that the drivers matches and were up to date - however, the error i get told me there is a problem with the drivers and installation would fail when i tried to install from the downloaded exe.
    I have been fixing my own systems for over 20 years, i have never seen a system as screwy as this with a fresh install.

  • I need help accessing the itunes store

    so for some reason my itunes doesnt let me get to the itunes store. it doesnt let me sign in to my itunes account and when i go into the itunes store through the internet is says. itunes can not proccess the request ( error 11223) please help me

    Go up to the top of your screen on iTunes and click on 'Store'.  Then go down to 'Authorize This Computer'.  That should cover part of it unless you've already authorized a bunch of other computers to use your account.  If that's the case, you'll have to go to one of those computers and click the button just below it to 'deauthorize your account' from that computer.  If you're not able to access the store, check your internet connection to make sure you are connected.  Hope this helps.. good luck!     

  • When a single-page form expands to more than one page, can you reference the new individual "pages" that have been created by the expanding table?

    Don't think this is possible but would love to be wrong.
    Bullet Points:
    1) In my demo form (simple hierarchy: form1.page1.table1.row1), 8 occurrences  (instance "0" through instance "7") of the repeating row1 can be visible
         before it causes a page break and adds another "page".  No issues there.
    2) I'm thinking about trying to control the end-users navigation abilities to only on-screen "previous page" and "next page" buttons.
         (So no scrolling from page to page; keep them where we want them.) Only way I can see making this work is if the form is designed
         and coded to only allow one page to be visible at a time --- nesting things correctly in a parent object then hide all necessary subforms
         and only make the appropriate subform visible.
    3) But when working with tables,  when occurrence 9 gets added (aka instance 8), it triggers an on screen "Page 2" to be added.
         End user can now scroll between Page 1 and Page 2. 
    4) Once Page 2 has been added, is there a way to reference Page 1 (as we see it on screen) and set it to be hidden?
    5) Is what we are seeing on screen as "Page 1" and "Page 2"  actually this.resolveNode("page1[0]") and this.resolveNode("page1[1]") ?
         Tried messing around with referencing it this way but didn't seem to work.  Maybe I had a typo but if we never set the subform named "page1"
         to allow multiple instances, I'm guessing it's not referenced this way.
    Any thoughts would be great.  Thanks so much to this community.

    If you're looking at learning a bit more about database design (looking at your description of what you've done in creating a separate table for each category of item sold sounds like you're approaching it as though it was a flat-file rather than a relational database), there's a few books that I could direct you to:
    Beginning Database Design (ISBN 978-1590597699)
    Database Design for Mere Mortals (ISBN 978-0201694710)
    Databases Demystified (ISBN 978-0072253641)
    Absolute Beginner's Guide to Databases (ISBN 978-0789725691)
    I've also got an older book that's always sitting by my desk called Dreamweaver MX Databases (ISBN 978-0782141481), which I still reference regularly - chapter 3 on coding practices and chapter 5 on database design provide very good overviews of the subject.
    There's also a Database Development for Dummies, but I'm not a huge fan of the series where they're tackling technical subjects.
    Without knowing the data you're modeling, it's quite difficult to make generalisations, but I'd probably be looking at a single table called 'Product' (which contains all the product records), and which had in it a boolean for 'new item' and for 'on sale' (you could then use SQL to filter out new and/or sale items when you create your recordset). I'd then have a look up table called 'Categories' which held the values 'necklace', 'handbag', 'belt', and 'purse' which the Product table could then reference to identify.
    Breaking your data down into a logical structure like this is called 'normalisation' (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_normalization) - although it's a bit technical. There's a simpler practical explanation of a similar query to yours at TechRepublic (http://articles.techrepublic.com.com/5100-10878_11-5288500.html), which uses MS Access, but don't worry about that as it's teaching a concept which is applicable no matter what the database server.

  • Are recentlt closed tabs web pages that have been opened?

    I was looking at the history on my kids computer and saw some websites listed under recently closed tabs. Are these sites that have been opened? Could they just "pop up"
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506.648; .NET CLR 3.5.21022)

    I have since discovered two errors here.
    The 'Image corrupt or truncated' error message is appearing in the error log but the picture opens correctly on the web page.
    The page not displaying correctly is caused by a strict or erroneous application of DOM rules, meaning that a form name can only be referenced within a Javascript function by stating the full reference (i.e. document.''formname''.value) rather than simply f''ormname''.value.

  • Need help changing the default load page in Flash

    Welcome,
    I recently purchased a flash template.  The one problem I am having is that the default page that starts up when you play the movie is not the page I want it to start on.  It is starting on the gallery section of the menu item which is the 3rd tab and I wanted to start on the very first tab/menu item which is,About Us section.   What steps would I take to change the default homepage so it opens on About Us instead of Gallery. 
    Here is an example.  This is not my site but it's to illustrate what I am talking about.  www.thunderfuel.com.  It's like my webpage is starting up on the Web Design Tab, instead of the Games Tab which I want it to. 
    Thanks

    That's why the gallery shows up first then, its first in the timeline. There are a number ways you can change this. 1. You might select the section in the timeline that you want to show first and move it to the beginning of the timeline. 2. You could add a simple gotoAndPlay() directive at the start of the movie to tell the playback head to move immediately to the section that you want to show first.

  • Safari Won't Load Router Web Page

    Safari 7.0.3
    OS X 10.9.2
    Mac Mini 2009
    I recently got a new router: TP-Link TD-W8980
    If I enter the router's IP address into Safari, I see the router's login page.
    After I log in, all I see is a blank page.
    If I close the blank page and type in the router's IP address again (before the session times out), the router's web page displays normally.
    If I use Chrome, the behavior is normal.
    Why do I have to close the page and reopen in order for Safari to properly display the router web pages?
    Message was edited by: Buadhai - Correct spelling of Chrome.

    I''m sorry, but I don't understand your question at all.
    This is from the router's setup guide:
    3.2 Quick Installation Guide
    With a Web-based utility, it is easy to configure and manage the TD-W8980 N600 Wireless Dual Band Gigabit ADSL2+ Modem Router. The Web-based utility can be used on any Windows, Macintosh or UNIX OS with a Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or Apple Safari.
    1. To access the configuration utility, open a web-browser and type the default address http://192.168.1.1 in the address field of the browser.
    How would Safari know how to get to the router's web server if you didn't enter the IP address in the browser's address field?

  • WRT54GX4 - Difficulties Accessing the Router's Web-Based Setup Page

    WRT54GX4 - Difficulties Accessing the Router's Web-Based Setup Page.
    I have tried everything posted to the forums and the Knowledge Base for several weeks now with no luck.  I can power push router and gain access to router's web-base interface but only for a few minutes than it quits loading part way through and or does not load at all.  If I turn off the wireless side I can access the router at will with no problems. My warranty is almost over. I am at my wits end. I would like to get it replaced under warranty if I can. (^8
    Solved!

    Thank you for your recommendations peanuts. (^8
    I bought the router back in December 10, 2006. 
    I updated the firmware to v1.00.20 back in June 2007. After I did a successful firmware upgrade I reset the router to factory default settings and then reconfigured it. It has worked Ok till a couple of months ago.
    I have read everything I can find here on the support forum and in the Knowledge Base several times.
    I have tried changing all the different settings to the different recommendations posted here and in Knowledge Base with no success. Each time I would do a long reset back to factory defaults, let it soak for a few hours and then make one change at a time and let it soak.
    I have been monitoring 6 other wireless AP(s) around me (none mine) for a couple of months too. None of them are strong enough to connect to. My SSID is different from them. I have tried all the channels. My router is passworded and MAC'd.
    It is looking like it is time to call support and try to get a replacement under warranty while it is still in affect.

    I need advise and help with this problem .
    First , I have been with Mac for many years ( 14 to be exact ) I do have some knowledge and understanding of Apple product .
    At the present time I'm having lots of problems with the router so I was looking in to some info , and come across one web site regarding : port forwarding , IP addresses .
    In my frustration , amongst lots of open web pages tutorials and other useless information , I come across innocent looking link and software to installed called Genieo , which suppose to help with any router .
    Software ask for permission to install , and about 30 % in , my instinct was telling me , there is something not right . I stop installation . Delete everything , look for any
    trace in Spotlight , Library . Nothing could be find .
    Now , every time I open Safari , Firefox or Chrome , it will open in my home page , but when I start looking for something in steed of Google page , there is
    ''search.genieo.com'' page acting like a Google . I try again to get raid of this but I can not find solution .
    With more research , again using genieo.com search eng. there is lots of articles and warnings . From that I learn do not use uninstall software , because doing this will install more things where it come from.
    I do have AppleCare support but its to late to phone them , so maybe there some people with knowledge , how to get this of my computer
    Any help is welcome , English is my learned language , you may notice this , so I'm not that quick with the respond

    Genieo definitely doesn't help with your router. It's just adware, and has no benefit to you at all. They scammed you so that they could display their ads on your computer.
    To remove it, see:
    http://www.thesafemac.com/arg-genieo/
    Do not use the Genieo uninstaller!

  • Cannot connect using Accessing the Router's Web-Based

    I'm trying to update firmware, I have done all the step to access the router's web-based.. I connected DSL to the Ethernet port on the router, from the router I used another Ethernet cable to connect the router to my laptop.. I can't get an internet connection.  The reason why I'm doing the update I have been using WRT54G2 V1 with no problems, all at once I can't connect to the internet using the router.  I was told that I need to perform a firmware update.
    Thank you for the help

    What' s the ip address and the default gateway are you getting on the computer ?
    Connect the DSL modem to the Internet port of the router then use port number one on the router to connect the computer.
    Click on Start > Run > type CMD hit Enter command promt window will appear on the screen.
    In the command promt window tupe "ipconfig" hit Enter. Now you will see the ip address and the default gateway on the screen. Use the default gateway to open the setup page of the router.

  • Accessing the online web-configuration page

    I own a Linksys-G WRV200 wireless router, and I have tried to access the online configuration page and a page comes up that says
    401 Bad Request
    cannot use wireless interface to access web.
    Now, I do not have the disk that came with the router but I do have the software for my router, downloaded from this website. I have done the process where you go into command prompt and type "ipconfig /release" then "ipconfig /renew", and it did not work, unless I have to restart my PC again after I did this process, which i have not.
    Are there any other ways to open this web-configuration? The only reason I want to do this is so I can edit my NAT settings and Port Forward, is there any other way to do this without the online web-page? 
    Thanks in advance

    To view the router's web pages:
    You do not need an Internet connection.  The router's "web pages" are built into the router.
    Use Internet Explorer, it usually works.
    JavaScript must be enabled.
    Use a computer that is wired to the router (often, an attempt to connect wirelessly will fail).
    In the non-working computer, temporarily turn off your software firewall.
    If you are using Zone Alarm, right click on the ZA icon in the system tray (lower right corner of screen) and then click "Shutdown ZoneAlarm", and see if this fixes your problem. If this does not work, try the following with Zone Alarm: Open the ZAISS control center, go to Privacy, then temporarily turn off Ad Blocking and Cookie Control, and see if that fixes your problem.
    If you are using Noton Internet Security with the Add-on Pack, be sure to turn off the Pop-up Blocker, and the Ad blocker. Some users have reported that they needed to uninstall the entire Norton Add-on Pack.
    If you cannot get anything at 192.168.1.1 then perhaps this is not your router's address. Go to "Start" > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt.
    A black DOS box will appear. Type in "ipconfig" (with no quotes), then hit the Enter key. Look at the "Default Gateway". Is it 192.168.1.1 ? Point your browser to the "Default Gateway", then login to your router.
    If the above fails, disconnect your modem from the router, and try again. If this corrects your problem, then most likely you have a "modem-router" rather than an ordinary modem.  Report back with this problem, and also state the make and exact model number of your modem (not the Linksys router).
    If all of the above fails, power down your entire system, unplug it from the wall, wait one minute, then power up and try again.
    If all of the above tips fail, then reset the router to factory defaults: Power down the router and disconnect all wires from it. Wait one minute. Power up the router, allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes), then press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release the button and allow the router to reset and reboot ( 2-3 minutes). Power down router. Wait one minute. Connect one computer, by wire, to a LAN port on the router. Boot up system. It should work.
    If the reset does not fix your system, then you need to download and install (or re-install) the latest firmware for your router. After the firmware upgrade, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.

  • When I update to the latest version I cannot access the add-ons page or request help because neither page will load. My Weather channel add-on was NOT piced up when updating to the latest version. Why problems with improved latest version?

    I have twice downloaded the latest version in the last month. Each time I encountered the same problems. the Weather Channel add-on I have did NOT appear in the latest version. When I tried to access the Add-Ons page under the Tools header it would not load. When I tried to contact Mozilla from the Help header it would not load

    This is NOT an improved version. I have been using Firefox for years without problems; I prefer it to Internet Explorer. However the latest 'improved' version may change my mind.

    The problem is that the Add-ons Manager tab when opened the first time, is on "Get Add-ons" section and that must be downloaded from the Add-ons server which might be overburdened.
