Re: [HN9000] Wireless using a d-link N300

The default IP address of the Dlink router is the same as the default for your HughesNet modem...they are in conflict...

You need to log into the Dlink router and change the address to something else...like 192.168.1.1...

To do this connect your dlink to your computer...leaving the HughesNet modem disconnected...in your browser go to:
»192.168.0.1
Log in with username: Admin
Password: [leave blank]

Or if it has been changed, use what it was changed too...

Click on Network settings, change the 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.1
Near the top of the page click on save settings...this will cause the router to reboot....don't wait for a log in screen after the reboot...Wait a minute and then unplug the router from power...

Power cycle your HughesNet modem...once the system light comes on solid...connect the Modem to the routers internet port plug the router in and wait for a couple minutes...

Then connect your computer to the router...your computers browser should be set to automaticly detect an IP address...

You can not and do not need to turn off DHCP in the HughesNet modem...

If you want to log into your router to set up security after this change you will need to log in using 192.168.1.1...
