can not logon on to DI 624..HELP please

[nealh]

I am not new to routers but for the life of me, I can not even logon to the router let alone get internet to work

I have FIOS...I have a non wireless DI 604...works fine

I have DI 624 hardware C revision with fw 2.50 and I can not even logon to the router

I own a netgear router, wgr614..I can plug it into the wall and then connect it to my computer and hit 192.168.0.1 and using admin with password=password..log right on

So I turn off the desktop

connect the DI 624 to FIOS on WAN, then connect desktop to LAN port 1...power up the desktop

Try to open IE and I get no internet

SO I type 192.168.0.1...logon screen for DI 624

Admin is blank..I type admin(all lower case)...leave password blank
hit ok..nothing
so this type I type password in password space nothing

I close explorer..try again....admin, password blank...hit ok and I get 401 authorized error

what the hell am I doing wrong

If you get the Admin page it means that the computer is logging to the Router.

Might be tha it is a return unit, and someone changed the password. Try to apply hardware to reset the Router.

Jack thanks for the fast reply

It is a unit I traded another ATer for..the trader is top notch so I am sure the unit is fine

do I hard reset with the router plugged in or off

 

[JackMDS]

It need to be plugged in.

Read the manul there are few revisions.

If you do not have a manual there are pdf manuals on D-Link support pages.

I looked over the manual but it really never says..but it looks like it needs to be plugged in from some responses at broadban reports

Thanks for the help
