How can i access my linksys router with while useing a Verizon modem?

Q. Im trying to access my Linksys Router by 192.168.1.1 but it's just bringing me to my Verizon modems. Does anyone have any experience with this?

A. Try this link for default IP addresses and login info for a huge list of home networking products:

Hope it helps.


What is the Default IP Address for Linksy and D-Link Routers?
Q. Looking for ways to enter my D-link and Linksy routers.

A. Normally it's 192.168.0.1, you type this into your Web browser if you are unsure of how to enter it as well and also if you don't know the password here is a website with default passwords - http://www.routerpasswords.com . If you can't reach it on 192.168.0.1 open Command Prompt in Windows (Command Prompt is in Start/All Programs/Accessories or you can type cmd into run) and type "ipconfig" (without the quotes), the Windows IP Configuration settings will show up. Under the first group of settings (Ehternet adapter Local Area Connection) you will find a line like this: Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : "Your router IP Address"

There you have it, it's after the Default Gateway.


Need to find the IP address of my Linksys router?
Q. Can't remember what I changed the default IP to on my Linksys (its been 2 years) and now I need to get into it. I know IPCONFIG /ALL is supposed to display it but its not displaying the local IP for my router. I know theres another way, just cant think of it right now. Anyone?
its not 192.168.1.1 I changed it years ago and cant remember what I cahnged it to. IPconfig is only giving me the ISP assigned IP not my local IP i know its 192.168.1.(something) but thats not giving me it.

A. Type 192.168.1.1 on your url box and hit enter. You can check your settings and change them as you please.


If you reset a Linksys router will it do anything to the connections its already setup to?
Q. I have a linksys router and i wanted to get internet on my wii. And i forget my password so i want to reset it, but im not sure if it will do anything to the computers that have hooked up to it already. Will it?

A. It will disconnect. Also, all your wireless computers will still be using the old encryption key and won't be able to connect to the router. Also, the router will no longer have your Internet Service Provider's gateway IP address and Domain Name Server IP addresses. You'll have to set them all back up again.

All for a Wii?

Here's how to find the encryption key: If the encryption key isn't on a label on your wireless modem or router, the likeliest place to find it is in your router's admin pages. Exactly where in those pages varies from brand to brand. If you don't have a router, the following should apply to your modem itself.

Basically, to get into the admin pages, do this:

1.On a computer connected to a wired port on your router (wireless access to the admin pages should be turned off as a security risk), enter the router's local IP address in your browser's address window.ON A LINKSYS, THIS IS PROBABLY 192.168.1.1. THE LOGIN IS USUALLY A BLANK USERNAME AND ADMIN AS THE PASSWORD.
2.Poke around, especially under wireless security, until you find the encryption key. Copy it down EXACTLY. Copy-and-pasting it into a text file (Wordpad is generally best because it's on almost all Windows machines) is even better, as it can be copy-and-pasted from there into whatever needs it. When you see it, you'll understand why this is a good idea.

To find your router�s IP address in Windows:

3.Click on the Start->Run button.
4.In the text box, type

cmd

and press Enter.

5.A black "DOS box" will pop up. In it, enter

ipconfig /all

A bunch of gibberish will fill the box. Next to "Default Gateway" an IP address will appear. This is your router's IP address.

Hope that helps.
