When I type 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 into my browser it just stays white and nothing happens. I can access it on my phone and other PCs throughout the house, but I want to be able to edit my router setting with my pc.
 

There is not.
 


What IP do you use on the other PCs or phone to access the router?
 
If you are trying to use wifi while doing this and aren't connecting, then plug directly into your router and you should be able to connect. If you are using direct connect, then disregard everything I just said.
 


Try using another browser such as IE or Firefox, I would also try this in safe mode with networking,

Can you ping your router from the command prompt?

> ping 192.168.0.1

Also, just so I am clear -which IP is the router? You listed .1.1 and .0.1 -which one is the router?
 


Yeah I can ping it, and I tried it on Chrome and IE doesn't work on either. Its .0.1 and I am starting to think it might be an OS issue.

 
If it is .0.1 then 1.1 should fail..as this is another IP address and your router can only be assigned one at a time (assuming it is a consumer-grade router with one WAN port).

I would factory reset the router, then reboot it.

Then, plug a patch cord directly into a switch port (not the WAN port) and try configuration again.
 
It is definitely a application/OS issue. Java and ActiveX can sometimes cause issues of this type. Also, there could be anti-virus or firewall settings preventing connection.

If a factory rest of the router does not work then;

Boot into "Safe mode with networking" and troubleshoot from there with firewall and antivirus turned off.
 
Could you do a :

ipconfig /all

and post results please. DNS should be the IP of your router (192.168.0.1)

It could be as simple as this, another way to check is to ping something by name..

Can you ping www.google.com like;

>ping www.google.com

If this is unsuccessful then DNS is the issue.
