Hi everyone. i’ve got a Dlink router and im trying to open some ports for call of duty multiplayer. but i can’t open the ip 192.168.0.1! so i can’t access the router settings. what do i do? I’m using a firefox web browser

Your Routers IP might not be 192.168.0.1… but windows will knows the IP of the router.

ipconfig /all

Your routers IP is the one next to “defualt gatewat”

but it is :frowning:

Interesting… I’m guessing you’ve been able to log into your router before?

Try Telneting in, could be a fun experiance :smiley: (If you router supports temnet)

telnet 192.168.0.1 23

What model if your router?

PS sure its not 192.168.1.1? just a thought… oh, btw. Its not firefox… the browser is irrelivent in this case!

ya, it’s a Dlink DI 524. umm… what is telneting?

its not 192.168.0.1

Telnet alows you to log into a text only service on a remote machine, normally you selct menus with a number and then what you want from tha menu with another number…

I found the manual for your router, D-Link DI-524 High Speed 2.4GHz (802.11g) Wireless Router , there are some firmware updates there aswell that you might wan to apply when this is sorted!

Try restarting it… and if that doesnt work, do a factory reset.

I just rememberd something similar hapening with a friends wag54g, unfortunatly i cant remeber what was wrong atm and i cant get hold of him for over 10 hours… allthough with his problem leave the browser loading for a LONG time and it will eventually prompt for user/pass

with all my past experiences with dlink, the default ip for dlink routers is 192.168.1.1.

What error do you get? A server not found type one or a authentication error?

Check on the bottom of the router for the access settings.

i dont know if this will help but try setting a static ip and see if it works.

Try these settings

ip= 192.168.0.100
subnet= 255.255.255.0
gateway=192.168.0.1

dns= 4.2.2.1
dns= 4.2.2.2

First make sure your nic is set to acquire tcp/ip info via dhcp, then in cmd run ipconfig where it will list your default gateway which will be your routers address. enjoy.
