I lost my WAP's IP address.

I have a Belkin 54g F5D7230-4 wireless router. I just got DSL, and the DSL modem was also a router so I set the wireless router to an access point. This changed its IP address, and I thought I wrote it down, but none of the IPs I have written down bring up the configuration page. My computer is connected to the router right now, so the IP has to be known by something. Is there some way to find out the address, or will I have to reset the router (or type 512 ip addresses)?
 
I think I got it. The Wireless router has a subnet of 192.168.2.x, and the DSL router has a subnet of 192.168.1.x so that the WAP IP 192.168.2.254 wasn't routable when I started using the DSL router. So I'll just change that.

[Edit]
Thanks, insename2, it was just the WAP's IP wasn't in the dsl router's subnet. Now it works. Also the default gateway was the DSL's IP and not the WAP's.

Why was I even able to get to an exernal address with a WAP in a different subnet?
