Re: Unable to access 327w config via 198.162.1.1

Sorry, wrong number.

24.113.32.60 is probably your ISP's router. It belongs to Wave Broadband - are they your ISP?

Here is my best guess:

You are not using your 327w as a wireless router. You might be using it as a wireless access point. It is acting as a wireless repeater to connect you to your cable modem, but isn't doing any routing.

If you want to get to the configuration page of the 327w, try this:

(1) manually configure your computer IP address to 192.168.1.50
(2) browse to "http://192.168.1.1"

When finished with accessing the modem, configure your computer back to "get an IP address automatically".

You rock!!! I did not consider the distinction between repeating and routing. I followed your directions, got to the configuration page, and adjusted the settings in accordance with an earlier post I found at »Re: Using Westell 327w as a wired switch/wireless AP. Thanks to you I now have wireless internet. I assume I will have to use your manual IP trick anytime in the future to access my 327W config page. Is there any other check you recommend I do to confirm that I have configured correctly?
