Default Problem connecting to the router

Hey all!! Ive been having a problem with my router for the last 2 days. It was all working fine before. I use a Speedtouch 510v6 modem and TRENDnet TW100-S4W1CA 4 port broadband Router. And my connection type is a PPPoE.
Heres the case:
I needed to check my modems settings so I disconnected my router and connected my modem directy to my laptop. (i went online 192.168.1.254 to check the settings, and it was working well). When I connected my router back and wanted to check its settings from online, i coulndt connect to 192.168.1.1. But internet was working fine

So I reset the router it. And that didnt help. So I restored the routers deafult settings (I hope it was the right thing to do). and that didnt work either. From there on the internet is down aswell. Cant connect through the router (but i can when using only the modem, so the connection is working..something wrong with the routers settings)

I reconfigured my router as it was said in the TW100-S4W1CA configuration book. Shut my pc, modem and router down and then back again. Checked my TCP/IP settings. They are on "obtain an IP address automatically". And then the book said that my windows ip configurator should show this:

it said that if the IP-s are following, my PC has succesfully connected to the router.

IP 192.168.0.x
Subnet 255.255.255.0
Gateway: 192.168.0..1.1

so i opend RUN----ipconfig/all, and thats what i got

Windows IP configurator

Ip Routing is enabled
Wins Proxy is not enabled

DHCP enabled

IP 192.168.1.2
Subnet 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.1.1

The book said that if the IP is not the same, restart everything and try again. I did..twice, but it didnt help..so .. i dont know what else to do. I can connect now to the online configurator, but other internet is down.

My cables are all working fine, i reset my TCP/IP just in case (read it in some forum) and my firewall is off, and i installed latest firmware to my router (:D i dont know if it helps or not)

Now my head is completly empty so any help is appreciated!!!!

Thank You ....

Default Problem connecting to the router

The default gateway should be the same as the router IP - 192.168.0.1

The computer IP should be one after the router IP - 192.168.0.2

If you can log into the router and it says it's connected to the Internet and your PC is saying it has a IP and default gateway from the router I'd probably start looking at a virus or spyware infection.

You could also open the network card properties then go to the TCP/IP settings and the second tab at the top and enter the IP settings manually.

By the sounds of it this is what you need:

IP - 192.168.0.2
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway - 192.168.0.1

Primary DNS - 192.168.0.1

You said you can't connect to the router, if you can, changing IPs is a waste of all our time.

If you can connect to the router but not the Internet then it's the ISP settings that need setting up.

Exactly where are we in terms of what does and/or doesn't work?

We could have skipped all this but you said in your original post that you couldn't connect to the router.

Anyway.

You shouldn't require any settings for the router as the modem handles all this.

Who supplied the modem? Your ISP?
