I have a Wireless-G Broadband Router that is connected to another router that connects my computer to the internet. Im trying to access the setup of this but when i go to 192.168.1.1 and type in the orginal password i cant login. I get 401 Unauthorized Authorization required. Im accessing it a wireless network card so its not directly connected to the router.
I didn't setup this router orginally so could it be im typing in the wrong password or is it something else. The orginal password being username: (empty) and password:admin

You have the correct default user name and password, but remote administration via a wireless connection is disabled by default on those routers. You will need to connect to the router directly (via an Ethernet cable) in order to access the setup pages.

i tried doing what you said still the same problem.

OK- you'll still need to keep the wired connection though; what I said about the wireless management restriction still stands.

- Can you at least ping the router?

- Are you sure that the router's default password hasn't been changed? Anyone with a bit of security sense would have done that when the router was first set up.

Yea seems like the password was changed however i could access it through my wireless connection. My setup is on this webpage http://www.edonkey2000.com/documenta...reachable.html diagram 2.

So are you saying that you managed to get it sorted out now? It isn't quite clear from what you posted.

Yep got it sorted.

Cool; just wanted to make sure.

One suggestion though: disable the wireless/remote management option again, or anyone with half a mind who gets in range of your router will be able to have a lot of fun with your network. :eek: :eek:
