I know and i remember that i used the modem configuration page and could access 192.168.1.1 without any problems but now when i opened up easy install to configure my router, the installation process gets stuck. :sad:

I mean i can't access 192.168.0.1 in the D-Link DIR615 Router and 192.168.1.1 in my Nokia Siemens C2110 modem. Both are not working.

I did ipconfig/all in cmd and got a wierd result. The default gateway address for LAN is empty.

Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . :
this is your problem.this is the default IP of windows network setting(just after windows install).you have to 1st manually assign an IP 192.168.1.x(x=2,3,4,...),subnet 255.255.255.0 & default gateway 192.168.1.1.once you do this & configure modem you can then change back IP to automatic & your pc will get IP 19.168.1.x from modem.

Re: The modem and router configuration page 192.168.1.1 not working! Help Please!!!

You can't access some other network from a different network group.

That's why you are not able to access your modem page.

For example, @OP's IP is 169.254.100.132 and Subnet Mask is 255.255.0.0. And that's why he's not able to access 192.168.0.1 / 192.168.1.1

So to be able to access 192.168.1.1 he need to get into the 192.168.1.0 network.

So practically what @whitestar_99 meant is....
1. Set your PC's IP manually to 192.168.1.2 (You can even set 192.168.1.3 / 192.168.1.4. But don't set 192.168.1.1 as it's the IP of your router) and Subnet Mask to 255.255.255.0 and gateway to 192.168.1.1
2. Now you will be able to access your router on 192.168.1.1.

Now you can keep this configuration and have fun otherwise if you want don't want to keep that manually assigned IP, you need to configure your Router to assign IP by turning on DHCP and configuring it if needed.

After that you can change your PC's IP to Obtain IP Automatically to get the IP via DHCP from Router.

Hope I'm clear...

OK guys I get what you've been saying and would try it if i get the same problem again!!! That i hope should work... :?:

:idea:However i thought that the field being blank must be something with the Windows because it just worked perfectly fine few days back... So i just did a restart and to see if it works or it has certainly gone wrong and voila :shock: ,,, the page opened up at 192.168.1.1 for the modem as well as 192.168.0.1 for router. So I think afterall, it was the Windows that gave me a freaking shock then...

And i appreciate your help guys.. Thanks for helping and for the replies. Have got some knowledge from that.. :wink:
