Another NEWBEE Question

[wilsonbh]

I bought a used AX11000. Love the router and can access it nicely on the iPhone ASUS APP. But cannot access the GUI via my desktop computer. When I first got the thing, I used my laptop and turned off its WiFi and plugged a cable into a port. It worked nicely and I set up all the parameters I needed. Then after it was put on the shelf to begin working for me, I've been unable to access it via 192.168.1.1

Can this router only be accessed via the iPhone APP or via the direct connect with a cable via my laptop? Makes tweaking a little more difficult if I can't get into the GUI via my desktop.

Probably a stupid question ....

Shemp would know that the default IP of newer routers is 192.168.50.1. Did you change it?

What about http://asusrouter.com or http://router.asus.com ?

Nope, doesn't work. Maybe I set up the router as Primary incorrectly? I can't get YouTube to play now either. Frustrating!!!

You have to check your connections and configuration. Something is obviously wrong there.

I found a different IP address on the iPhone router screen that worked. It was not the standard one of 192.168.1.1

What’s the different IP?

Well, I used the iPhone APP and updated the firmware, afterwards, everything seemed to fix itself. YouTube came back and life is good again, for the moment.

Oops! Yes, I missed that. But got there eventually. Shemp helped me.

I'd say that Shemp got a good kick in the butt from @dave14305!

You must be working for Bell. This is what their technicians say after plugging in the 4th Pod in the last unused power outlet behind the refrigerator.
