Router ip address

ok i have a fairly stupid question, should my router ip be the same as my computer ip address? a while back they were the same and just recently i found i was unable to host on a game that uses port fowarding, yet, everything is the same as it use to be the only difference is now my ip address for my computer is way different that the one my router has set. sooooo in the end should my router address be the same as my computer? and if not could that be what is effecting my game?

Hi !
       Your PC's IP address will never the same a your router .......when u type "ipconfig" in the command prompt   u get the  IP address ,subnet mask & default gateway... .....default gateway is your router IP .......so for port forwarding u can assign a static IP to your PC (e.g.:- IP add :-192.168.1.9 subnet mask :-255.255.255.0 default gateway :-192.168.1.1) then open the setup page for the router & forward the port under applications & gamings tab !
                   Then it should be up n running !

  • WRT54G router IP address is the same as my modem's IP address. how to change the routers IP address?

    The broadband modem got broken and the ISP changed it to a new modem. Now my problem is I cannot use the router when they changed the modem. The ISP won't provide support since they didn't provide me with the wireless router. I've read through the forum and found that I had to change my router's IP address. WRT54G router IP address is the same as my modem's IP address, 192.168.1.1. I already changed the local IP address of the router to 192.168.1.2, saved the setting, released and renew the ip address. Now, when I connected my internet modem cable to the router, I cannot connect to the internet. I am able to ping 192.168.1.2 but I cannot connect to the ping 192.168.1.1. Please help me do the proper setup.
    Thanks!

    Hello! I solved my problem but I find the solution so weird. After changing the routers IP address to 192.168.1.2, instead of plugging the modem cable on the Internet port of the router, I plugged it in one of the WAN ports. Presto, it worked. Even my wireless connection is also working.

  • Router IP address change

    I have DHCP on my network router firewall and I have a wireless router. I also have a private IP address setup of 10.0.1.   I change to router IP address to my IP range but it does not work. Is there a way to setup the router to find DHCP on my network and capture the correct 10.0.1 range? If not how can I manually change it and still use th web browser setup page to configue the router? The setup page has the rages 192.168.. range and will not connect to the web browser setup when change from this...I also wanted to disable the DHCP since I already have DHCP on the network...

    You can login to router's setup and change its IP address to IP address matching your network. Next time login using the new IP address assigned.

  • What should my router IP address be?

    I had my Airport Extreme router running my wireless network and the IP address was 192.168.1.1.
    Then I reset everything and deleted the old network and created a new one with the same name.
    It seems to be working fine but now the router IP address shows 10.0.1.1.
    Why did it change and should it be 192.168.1.1 like before?
    I have 3 Mac computers, an iPad and an Airport Express and they all now have IP addresses starting with 10.0.1.
    Why is this happening?
    Thanks
    Len

    The default IP address of all the Apple routers is 10.0.1.1, so if you reset the device or the settings back to defaults, this is the setting that you will see.
    The 10.0.1.x range works just fine. There's no particular reason for it to be 192.168.1.1 unless you happen to like that number better. There's no performance advantage to either the 10.0.x.x or 192.168.x.x range.
    Your next question may be how to change back to 192.168.1.1.
    Open Airport Utility - click Manual Setup
    Click the Internet icon
    Click the DHCP tab below the icons
    Locate the setting for DHCP Beginning Address and change this to 192.168
    Click Update at the lower right to save your settings
    You'll need to power cycle your entire network now.

  • Router IP address not found

    when I enter my router IP address into terminal I get:
    host 192.168.X.X
    Host X.X.168.192.in-addr.arpa. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
    On entering this I get
    $ hostname
    XXXXX-Mac-Pro-XXXXX.local
    But when I try to locate host on local I get same error message as IP address
    $ host XXXXX-Mac-Pro-XXXXX.local
    Host XXXXX-Mac-Pro-XXXXX.local not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)
    I'm not sure what is gong on or why, can anyone shed some light on this?

    Your DNS server does not have a name for your router's IP address.
    You DNS server does not have a name for XXXXX-Mac-Pro-XXXXX.local
    You can use ping XXXXX-Mac-Pro-XXXXX.local to get the IP address.  You can use other utilities to get the IP addresses of devices on your network, such as Bonjour Browser or WakeOnLan

  • I'm Trying to change my router ip address to match that of sling box any ideas

    I'm trying to change my router IP address to  match that of sling box. The airport extream will not let me or sling help change it . Any ideas

    Here are the basic steps to setup port mapping on the AirPort:
    AEBSn - Port Mapping Setup
    To setup port mapping on an 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), either connect to the AEBSn's wireless network or temporarily connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to one of the LAN port of the AEBSn, and then use the AirPort Utility, in Manual Setup, to make these settings:
    1. Reserve a DHCP-provided IP address for the host device.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AEBSn > Manual Setup > Internet > DHCP tab
    On the DHCP tab, click the "+" (Add) button to enter DHCP Reservations.
    Description: <enter the desired description of the host device>
    Reserve address by: MAC Address
    Click Continue.
    MAC Address: <enter the MAC (what Apple calls Ethernet ID if you are using wired or AirPort ID if wireless) hardware address of the host computer>
    IPv4 Address: <enter the desired IP address>
    Click Done.
    2. Setup Port Mapping on the AEBSn.
    AirPort Utility > Select the AEBSn > Manual Setup >Advanced > Port Mapping tab
    Click the "+" (Add) button
    Service: <choose the appropriate service from the Service pop-up menu>
    Public UDP Port(s): <enter the appropriate UDP port values>
    Public TCP Port(s): <enter the appropriate TCP port values>
    Private IP Address: <enter the IP address of the host server>
    Private UDP Port(s): <enter the same as Public UDP Ports or your choice>
    Private TCP Port(s): <enter the same as Public TCP Ports or your choice>

  • DNS fails using router IP address as DNS server address with static IP

    This is my first experience with a Linksys router so it might be normal behaviour but just wanted to check. With a WRT54G2 router I have a few PC's I want to use static IP. Up till now with other brand routers including Belkin and Dlink, I have been able to just put the router IP address in as the address of the DNS server when I use static IP. This seemed to work initially with the Linksys but now for some reason, if I don't code the IP addresses of the DNS server provided by my ISP, DNS lookup fails.  If I use DHCP for the PC's there is no problem.
    Is that normal behaviour or is there something wrong I am doing?
    Thanks
    Larry

    I decided to upgrade my Linksys 54G router to a "Ultra RangePlus Wireless-N Broadband Router (WRT160N)Version 1" . I have had problems with the wireless (as far as I know just wireless portion) connection dropping. I have done some searching I was able to find some settings to try, and it did work better, but not for too long. I have this router within arm reach away, so it's not a distance issue. I have tried many things for about the last 6months or so.
    As a last resort, and I do mean last resort and against my better judgement I purchased " Dual-Band Wireless-N Notebook Adapter (WPC600N) Version 1". I was hoping it was a compatibility issue, but there was no difference.
    I have heard of trying older firmware, but I can't find any.
    I have been a Linksys fan for quite sometime, but as of recently I am thinking of reconsidering if I can't get this resolved with out spending any more money.

  • Router IP addressed changed but I didn't change it!?!

    The weirdest thing happened, and I was hoping someone could offer an explanation.  I have a WRT54G router and 2 desktop and 1 laptop computer all setup wirelessly to it.  I am the only one in the house that is familiar at all with how the computer network is set up and noone else knows how to access the Router Setup (I don't they even know it exists!).  And even if for some reason they found out there is one, there is definitely no way anyone could know my username and password.  Anyway, I tried to log into the Router Setup and got a page could not be displayed message.  Then I checked to make sure I am connected to the right wireless network (didn't want to accidently connect to a neighbour's unsecure network) and yes, I am connected to mine - I can tell by the name.  So then I checked my default gateway IP just to make sure it looked ok, and discovered that the IP address is now 192.168.2.1 instead of 192.168.1.1!  When I try to log into the setup using this IP, it gives me a login screen, but won't authenticate me.  Has anyone every heard of this??  I know I can reset the router to factory defaults in order to log back in, but I'm wondering if anyone has ever heard of this before.  Any insight would be appreciated.  Thanks!

    Your setup seems good. So it is hard to tell what caused the problem. There is a certain chance that some hardware malfunction caused a couple of bits in the RAM to flip. Maybe it got the LAN IP address and some part of the password.
    If you really want to check whether someone's broken into you would have to monitor the LAN and the activity (e.g. check the lights and use a network sniffer). Certainly it may be a couple of days until whoever-was-it does something. So, I suppose the best option would be a fresh start from a reset if you are not able to connect to the router's setup anymore.
    Changing the LAN IP address of the router won't make it harder to find the router or its IP address. The DHCP server will quickly tell... Thus you have to turn the DHCP server off as well. But still there are so many broadcasts on your LAN that anyone who would gain access to your network would quickly know the IP address. Thus, anyone who would be capable to break into a WPA secured wireless network would have no problem with the different gateway address...

  • IPhone connects to network but do not get router,DNS address

    I can connect to wireless networks no problem, however DHCP does not work properly at all. I get a an IP address and netmask address but this does not correspond to computers already on the network and I cannot connect to the internet.
    i do not receive any DNS or router address on any network (checked a friends iPhone and they have the same problem).
    Only if I go to static and manually enter a correct ip address, netmask,router and DNS can i actually surf the web!
    I cant see any settings to tweak or change to fix this. anyone else experiencing this or know of a fix?

  • Received response from host (router IP address) with invalid source port 32784

    I replaced my old wireless router with a Cisco Linksys E4200, running firmware version 1.0.02 build 13  May 24, 2011.  About once a minute the router sends an unsolicited DNS message to the IPV4 multicast address 01:00:5e:00:00:fb with a destination IP address of 224.0.0.251.  The unsolicited message is a DNS response with source port 32784, transaction ID 0, flags 0x8400 (standard query response, no error), questions 0, answer RRs 2, authority RRs 0 and additional RRs 1.  The two answers both relate to the router itself: one has Name Cisco18738.local, type A (host address), class 1 (IN), cache flush true, time to live 1 minute, data length 4, and the address of the router.  The other is the reverse of the same address.  The additional record is for Cisco18738.local, type NSEC, class IN, cache flush true, time to live 1 minute, data length 5, next domain name Cisco18738.local, RR type A (host address).
    When my desktop computer receives these messages it logs an error, for example: "Jun 23 07:39:22 sauterws02 avahi-daemon[1067]: Received response from host 10.146.9.1 with invalid source port 32784 on interface 'eth0.0'"  The 10.146.9.1 is the router's IP address.  I also see these messages on the wireless link from my laptop.
    I suppose the E4200 is generating these DNS messages in a misguided attempt to make sure there is no old information about its name.  Is there a way to turn them off?  If not, is there a way to report this to Cisco as a bug?
    Solved!

    Thank you for the reference.  For the sake of others who may read this thread, the current draft of multicast DNS is at http://www.ietf.org/id/draft-cheshire-dnsext-multicastdns-14.txt. 
    Here is the whole paragraph from which you quoted, from section 6 (Responding): "The source UDP port in all Multicast DNS Responses MUST be 5353 (the well-known port assigned to mDNS). Multicast DNS implementations MUST silently ignore any Multicast DNS Responses they receive where the source UDP port is not 5353."
    Thus, it appears that there are two errors here: the Cisco E4200 is not using 5353 as the source port, and the logger is not silently ignoring it.
    The message appears to be an announcement rather than an actual response to a query.  In section 8.3 (Announcing) I found this paragraph: "A Multicast DNS Responder MUST NOT send announcements in the absence of information that its network connectivity may have changed in some relevant way. In particular, a Multicast DNS Responder MUST NOT send regular periodic announcements as a matter of course."  Thus, it appears that there are three errors here.

  • My router ip address is called an untrusted connection

    I've been having an ongoing problem with all of my devices (3 Macs, 2 Ipads, 1 PC) being unable to access Google related web pages, both in Firefox and in Safari. I either get a blank page when I click on a Google link (YouTube too) or else I am re-directed to something called LinkBucks.
    Using www.routerlogin.net I changed the password on my Netgear router and hard reset it but the problem persisted. I then tried to access the router by typing 192.168.1.1 in the address line but I got a Mozilla Firefox message telling me "This Connection is untrusted" and further stating "192.168.1.1 uses an invalid security certificate" "This certificate is not trusted because it is self-signed" "This certificate is only valid for UBNT" "Error code:sec_error_untrusted_user".
    Thinking my problem was router related I purchased an Apple AirPort Extreme and set it up as a new network today. It did not fix my problem with Google re-direction. The Airport Utility program tells me that the Airport Extreme router address is 192.168.1.1 but still, when I type that in to the Firefox URL address line I get exactly the same message that "This Connection is untrusted".
    When I go thru the same procedure in Safari, it tells me me "Safari can't verify the identity of 192.168.1.1" and it further tells me the certificate is "self-signed" by UBNT and Ubiquiti Networks in San Jose, California.
    Can anybody help? Why am I being told that the router address can't be trusted? Who/what is UBNT and/or Ubiquiti Networks?

    I am not familiar with Ubiquiti, but it seems they provide router technology: http://www.ubnt.com/
    A lot of routers include a security certificate so you can use HTTPS to encrypt your connection to the router. However, for cost reasons, they do not buy a signed certificate for every device, or should I say, not signed by an authority that Firefox (and apparently Safari) recognizes as a valid authority to sign certificates.
    Often you can create an exception so that Firefox trusts the certificate temporarily. If this were a website where any personal or financial information is involved, you would be suspicious and want to investigate carefully before allowing an exception. For your router, where you mostly connecting to configure its internet connection, you may feel more comfortable creating an exception.
    Now about LinkBucks: this might be a system-level hijack, but let's check a couple things in Firefox just in case:
    # Does it occur in Firefox's Safe Mode?
    # Can you try "No Proxy" as your connection setting?
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using
    Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled ''(Flash and other plugins still run)''
    In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
    Any difference?
    By default, Firefox will look to your system's connection setting.
    Firefox menu > Preferences > Advanced > Network mini-tab > "Settings" button
    The default (at least on Windows) is "Use system proxy settings" but try "No proxy" to see whether that makes a difference.
    I am not very familiar with troubleshooting malware on a Mac. I did find some threads on Apple's forums that you may want to review:

  • Subnetting and router ip addresses

    Hello all
    Can someone tell me if you can have a network of e.g 172.19.55.0 with a mask of 255.255.252.0
    Also when subnetting what ip address would you put your router on and what mask, would it have to be in the range you applied and the same mask ?
    thanks all

    If you have a mask 252, then the corresponding octet must be a multiple of 4 to make a network address. For example 172.19.48.0, 172.19.52.0, 172.19.56.0 etc are all valid subnet addresses.
    The address 172.19.55.0 would be seen as a host address within the 172.19.52.0/22 subnet. The subnet goes from 172.19.52.0 to 172.19.55.255, but the first address (172.19.52.0) is the address if the subnet itself, and the last (172.19.55.255) is the directed broadcast address. Anything between is valid as a host address. You can put your router on any of those valid host addresses, as long as you get the mask right.

  • PBR for a locally configured router IP address

    Hello community !
    I am trying to perform a very specific thing.
    I would like to perform a PBR for a subnet range located remotely. However one of the IP of this subnet is configured locally on the router (interface IP @) !
    I know that PBR takes precedence on a directly connected subnet, but what about if I want to perform PBR redirection for one of the IP directly configured on the router ?
    If you take a look on the network diagram, I can perform PBR and reach the IP 10.10.10.2 and 10.10.10.3, but the PbR does not work for 10.10.10.1 (loal IP @).
    I tried with 'set ip next-hop' and 'set interface' but no luck => The router (C881-K9 - 15.2.4M6a) handles the packet and answers anyway.
    If you have any idea or suggestion feel free to answer !
    Thanks in advance.
    Oliv.

    John, thanks for your inputs.
    Indeed I understand what you say. In fact the reason is simple : An error occured on subnets allocation.
    An already used range (subnets used to address some specific GRE tunnel interfaces on multiple routers [subnet in Orange on the diagram]) has been implemented elsewhere in a DC.
    PBR works well and overrides the routing table for this directly connected subnet except for the locally configured IP @ (and I perfectly understand why the router answers on its IP).
    This is problematic when a station from the LAN wants to communicate with a resource in the DC which is already used (interface detail).
    I understand the simplest solution would be to re-address but it is too much heavy at the time being.
    Any suggestion regarding this local host route overriding would be appricated !
    Thanks !

  • Policy routing via address ranges

    Is it possible to use policy routing based on ranges of a subnet? I want to have 192.168.1.1-100 go out e0 and 192.168.1.101-250 go out e1. From what I've read it only looks like policy routing works with route-maps using access lists

    You certainly can.. just use multiple lines in your ACLs to cover each range.
    For example,
    192.168.1.1-100 can be covered by:
    access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.63
    access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.64 0.0.0.31
    access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.96 0.0.0.3
    access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.100 0.0.0.0
    And use the following for everything else:
    access-list 1 permit 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.255
    So you can use the following:
    route-map PBR permit 10
    match ip address 1
    set interface e0
    route-map PBR permit 20
    match ip address 2
    set interface e1
    Hope that helps - pls rate the post if it does.
