Finding the Gateway IP Address Manually
To view the configuration web page on a protected domain:
1. Open your web browser and enter your router’s IP address into the
Address bar. Check your router documentation if necessary. Usually
this address is 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1, unless it was changed
when the router was installed.
The router log-in page appears.
2. Enter your user name (usually “admin”) and password. Check your
router documentation if necessary.
3. Navigate to the router page that lists all devices connected to your
router. For example, on the Linksys WRT300N router this can be
accessed under “Status—Local Network” then by clicking on “DHCP
Client Table.” Other routers may list devices under “Hostname.”
Some routers do not show this information at all. If that is the case,
follow the directions in “Finding the Gateway IP Address with No
Router in the System” on page 3–7.
4. The router page should list your computer name and
“POWERSYSTEM” (the default Gateway name) along with an IP
address for each. In Figure 3-4, the Gateway IP address is
192.168.7.101. Note that this address can change for several reasons,
including turning your router on and off, or disconnecting and
reconnecting devices to your router.
