Hello,

my english is not good and i found not the good word but

i say :

the router work
i reach the router but i have no more the menu

so if i reset the router the router will work for a pc but no more for a
laptop because it is protect by the mac adress and if after the reset that
solve not my probleme (to have acces to the menu) i can no more reach
internet with my laptop

and if the router is not protect by the mac adress per default i can reach
internet with my laptop but all the people can acces my router so it is not a
solution

But as you say I think I am doing the reset and we will see i wait also the
respons from the heldesk from netopia.

Thanks a lot to all and happy new year.

Hello,
last minute ;-)

i have 4 pc on the router and with one i can reach the router so it is not
the router (and i will not make the reset) but perhaps an activex in IE ?

I compared 2 pc, I reset IE but nothing can be done.

i have S&D, google desktop, ad aware
i continue to compare the 2 pc and try to find

Hi Beniot,

Best wishes for 2008!
And that was the reason i told you to use Firefox at the start of this
problem!
But yes it is not MS!

Hello,

happy new year to you Tom

Ok, but I have IE on my 4 pc, and I am still managed to get to my router and
now suddenly it does only upon one ...

I want to understand why it does not work before doing something

If I had made the reset it would have nothing arranged
If a take firefox maybe it work but why does that not work (now) with IE

I am busy comparing my 2 pc to see what difference as

Hi Benoit,

You can set on all the 4 PC's the Internet security settings to default.
Then look of all the machines can reach the router, if not start on 1 PC
to grade down security and then try the router and if that PC can get
to the router match the other the same way.
Ok good luck and let us know how things work out.

Hello,

het blijkt dat u spreek vlaams. Ik ben franstalig in België.
Ik ben bezig met dat te doen. Ik heb de reset van IE7 gedaan alle activex en
aanvullende module afgeschaft , maar nog niet gelukt. Ik heb de tool bar
van google et S&D ook afgeschaft maar ook geen resultaat. Morgen ik herbegin
met werken ik zal dat enkel avond een beetje doen en deze w-e.
Dank u


I already begin but without result, I go back to work tomorrow, I would do
that a little every evening and this WE

Hi Benoit,

You are on the right track.
I start working tomorrow also.
So if you want to do it in Dutch you also can use my E-mail direct.
But we keep the them here update

Good luck! I've done this a very small number of times, with different
products. Not sure what is happening, but I tend to blame the cut-down OS
versions running in these products. It is possible that since Telnet access
appears to work, that you could restart whatever isn't running via commands,
but I've no idea what those would be. Let's see what their support
suggests.

 

[Bill Sanderson]

If your concern is being able to put the laptop's MAC address back into the
router, I am quite certain there will be commands available to do this once
the router is reset to factory settings, which is what the reset process
should do.

 

[Bill Sanderson]

Your English is far better than my French--I think you are doing fine, but I
don't understand the issue you are speaking about in this message.

What is different about the laptop versus the PC? Is the laptop running a
non-windows OS?

Routers are pretty much OS agnostic--they speak networking protocols which
are not vendor-specific.

 

[Bill Sanderson]

OK - so, from one of the 4 machines, you can see both the Http menus and
Telnet menus when you connect to the router?

But from the other machines, you do not see those menus?

Strange indeed--I've never seen a router which required that a machine be
running Windows to talk to it, although this certainly isn't impossible--as
you say, an ActiveX control might do that. It wouldn't affect Telnet,
though, so I'm skeptical.

Question for you Bill and apologies for talking over Benoit in this thread.
If the IP address range of 3 of the 4 machines (for some inexplicable
reason), fell outside that assigned to the network i.e. the IP pool starting
and ending addresses. Wouldn`t that have similar consequences to what Benoit
is showing? Which may go some way (if my understanding is correct), to
explain why he can access the internet but not his router`s `web based
management user interface`with any degree of success. I still have in mind
the fact that this problem seemed to start after he introduced his WD
external HD to the proceedings. This leads me to wonder if it could be device
rather than browser related.

Hello

[benoit]

And if after the reset I still have no access to my router I can no more add
my 2 mac address

But this is no longer relevant since I saw that I can access my router for
at least one of my pc

But i continue to search why i can not acces with the 3 others because i
MUST undestand ;-)

 

[Bill Sanderson]

I hear you. This seems very odd to me as well--unless you have
intentionally blocked the MAC addresses of those 3 other machines in the
router....

 

[Bill Sanderson]

I don't think so.

If the machines are configured via DHCP, they should all have addresses in
the same range. If they somehow were configured so that they were not in
the same range, Benoit would not be able to reach the router via HTTP or
telnet--and he CAN reach the router--he just doesn't see what he expects to
see, as I understand it.

 

[Stu]

Have you tried or can you change the default IP address for your router from
within the one computer that you can communicate with? That option is
available thru your LAN settings. Risky. but nothing ventured, nothing
gained. Again I ask you. Is Windows or your router software handling events?
