D-link router configuration server 192.168.0.1 not working?!?

Question

I've tried to gain access to it but it doesn't work. It just says the page was taking too long to respond and couldn't?

Additional Details

I know how to set up a router, however my dad decided to do it last time, therfore it isn't working now as he thought he'd take it upon himself to create a network on a computer other than the one connected to the main router.

I believe this is why I can't access the server from this computer, i've tried resetting the router but it still doesn't reset the whole connection or let me access the server? Isn't there any other way I can just restart anything from normal?

That is the correct default address for a D-Link. But, try 192.168.1.1 anyway. There may be something wrong with the router. You can do the complete reset by pressing the red button in the little hole for 15 seconds. Then if 192.168.0.1 doesn't work, it's broken.

Answer 2

Are you sure the IP address is correct? remember, it all depends on the last two numbers.

Secondly, make sure it's plugged into your LAN card and the router is plugged in and switched on.

It may be worth restarting your router by turning it on and off again, or even resetting it by pushing a pen into the tiny RESET hole on the router.
This would completly erase all of your settings back to factory defaults, so if you don't know how to set it up, leave it for now.

Answer 3

I would have to agree with Lawrence..check the IP first, if IP is correct, check your default gateway number..usually that would be your router's address...check if it's still 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 etc...
resetting the router to factory settings will usually take 30secs

Answer 4

On your computer go to start >> run >> "cmd" (for win xp) for vista just go to start and type "cmd" in the search area.
Now in the command prompt type "ipconfig" and hit enter. This will list your ip address, subnet mask and default gateway. If your default gateway is listed, try pinging it. This is the address of your router which you would access with your browser.






for ex: ping 192.168.1.1

If your computer is properly connected, you should see something like this:

Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 2ms, Maximum = 4ms, Average = 2ms

if you don't get any replies back or if you don't see an IP address when you type ipconfig, you might not be connected to the router.

other suggestions, type "ipconfig /all" and see if DHCP is enabled.

And you do have the power on when you are pushing the little pin in to reset it right (for about 30-50 seconds)
