Hello.
After doing some minor f**k ups with my IP I can no longer access my router.
I have manual IPv4 settings, I don't have IPv6 set up.
Firewall was recently restored to default settings, can it be a problem?
Also, this happened when I changed DMZ internal ip address to my default gateway - it broke my internet, but I managed to fix it atleast so I can connect to internet.
Any solutions?
 
Yea, exactly. When I try to open it through the gateway it says it took to long to respond.
ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT
Also, I can provide ipconfig /all if needed.
 
Completely disconnect all power sources, cables and the plug to the wall. Once all that is done, then wait thirty seconds and then hold the reset button for another thirty seconds. This should cause the device to dissipate any residual power and clear anything saved in its memory. Then plug it back in and test with a wired connection to access the device's user interface.
 


Your router may not let you access the user interface without a wired connection. This may even be the result of resetting it to default in the first place. I have a CenturyLink router/access point. It wont let me connect to it's interface without an ethernet connection. My bypass is that I only use that device as the modem and connect a better third party router to it, and all devices that access my network access that third party router. I still have to be physically connected to the network though if I want to make any changes to the modem.
 


Hmm. I just tried this aswell. Everything is still the same.
I held reset while the router was disconnected and the power switch was at off state.
 


I do have a wired ethernet connection and trying to connect to the router interface in this way.
