How Can I Find My Router IP address at work?
Hi, we just had a new modem router Netgear DG834G installed at work. This is the same as my home one so am well aware of ow it works. Funny thing is I used to be able to access our OLD router on explorer via 10.0.0.3 but doesn't work on the new router. I have tried netgear's default 192.168.0.1 It's not that either.
So went on a site that scans your network (10 pc's and 3 network printers). It gave the IP address for all the pc's and printers but not the router. It's as though it is hidden. Have also noticed that our internet is far slower than it was before, even though the old modem operated at a slower speed than the netgear. Any ideas
Actually you are all worng. I am experienced were networking is concerned and IPCONFIG/ALL does not give the router address, only the ip address of our server. The IP address is 10.0.0.201 and found it easy. The router icon was simply located in my network places. It is not set up as a DCHP server as all our pc's have static routing. I need to access the router as I am the one who re-boots it if our internet is not working and also makes a back up of the settings. Still can't understand why our internet is slow, even with 1 pc online and have checked the speed which is about 5.5mbps. Thanks to you all anyway

1. 1337 h4x2. your obviously not the it manager or anything close to that....
think you,ve been caught up with...
3. It is probably 10.1.1.1. That is a common router IP address. You can turn off the pinging on a router, though. So you may not be able to hit it through TCP/IP.
4. start / run / type cmd, click ok / type ipconfig, hit enter.
default gateway ip address is that's router's ip addy and the ip address of course is the computer's ip.
to access the router's config page you'll use the default gateway ip.
5. in a command window type ipconfig /all. This should give your the ip address of the router.
6. 'ipconfig /all' at a command prompt will give you the DHCP assigned default gateway IP address.
If the router is acting as your DHCP server then this will be the routers IP address too.
If your not the IT manager or don't have authority to be messing with the router I would talk to the person who is first as they should have this information already. The company/person who installed this device should be able to give you all the information you need.
Considerations:
Is your issue network speed or Internet speed?
Are you connected wirelessly? Do you have a good signal?
(Poor wireless signal strengths degrade speed)
Is a PC on your network hogging all the bandwidth?
(Thus slowing everyone else down)
Post more info on what it is you are trying to achieve as your end goal. Why do you need to access the router?
7. you new router's SSID is hidden, so u won't be able to find it.
