Cant Access Router Configuration Page

djcj · 10 Jan 2008 at 21:58

I have a very annoying problem. I have 3 PC's in this house all connected sharing the same internetion connection via a wired Linksys BEFSR41 router. All has been absolutely fine for about a year until a few months ago. I have to regularly access the router configuration page to change a few settings, but now i cant access it on my main PC. I go to 192.168.1.1 and enter my user name and password, click ok and the user name and password fields just go blank again. I do this 3 times until i get an error screen.

The annoying thing is i know the details are correct. If i try and access it from the other 2 PC's in the house i can access the page first time. It's just my one main pc that wont allow me on.

It's driving me crazy :mad:

Help please?

Hard reset - hold the reset button in for 5 seconds

Yup, 'reset' worked for me when I changed some setting, the result of which being I couldn't log into the router, I couldn't even find it.

Fortunately I'd saved a previous profile and reloaded this after holding the 'factory reset' button in for several seconds and starting over again.

Not going to help as the other 2 PC's can still access the Admin pages. Must be a problem local to the one PC.

I'd guess you've entered a proxy in IE/ FF settings

This one has got me before.
