Use manual IP settings for the router, then you will be able to connect to it to reprogram it as resetting it wipes all settings.

OK ... if you have Reset the Router, then as Dave said, it needs reconfiguring.
If you cannot log in to the Router, with the patch cable connected, using 192.168.2.1 via your browser, then it sounds like the Router may be faulty. How far do you get ? ... i.e. do you see the log in screen for the Router, which prompts for username & password ? |
