Changed router’s IP address – Can’t configure?
I recently tried setting up my router, which is a WRT54G Linksys Wireless-G, and ran into a problem. To configure the router, the manual says to type in its default IP in my address bar. I did that, but changed the IP when I was messing with the settings.
Now I can’t get back to the configuration site using the default IP address OR with the one I changed.
The address it told me to go to was http://192.168.1.1, which no longer works.
Link below with pics. If this is the router. On the back is a small pin hole, use a paper clip and reset the router with power applied. This will bring everything back to default. The default IP is for the local net and you access the routers web page by using the address. There is seldom a need to change the default settings. Keep in mind there is a public IP as assigned by your ISP. This has nothing to do with the local IP’s on your local network. The only time you should need to mess with the settings is if you need to pass ports across the web making devices available to the rest of the world.
