Wifi Router Is Invisible!

yes, there is an awkward button that u have to use a paper clip to press but i dont know if it actually resets? how long should i hold it in for and how would i know if it has reset? im going to try the manual ip now
 
The Reset Button should just do a soft-reset.. i.e. turn it off and on, clearing cache.. but retaining settings etc.

No need to hold it in.. just press.
 
i pushed the reset button but i dont think it has any effect as the power light stays solid... i tried the manual IP. it shows that the connection is connected for 1 maybe 2 seconds and then says that the network cable is unplugged..
 
when i put it in the wan port it has a solid connection...
 
Hrmm... and when you try going to the Control Panel when it's connected to the WAN port... nothing happens?
 
ja, it tries to load but times out... that being said, iv been putting 192.168.1.1/.2 in though im not sure if thats right.. (?) but when i put something like 192.168.123.1 it doesnt even try loading
 
ok, i was wrong earlier, when i enter 192.168.1.2 as IP and connect via LAN port it just tries to acquire network address it doesnt actually connect for any period of time
 
you can't set the IP as 192.168.1.1... coz that's the Router's IP.. and it'll conflict.
but if changing the IP to 192.168.1.2 still gives nothing.. then I dunno hey... Try leaving the router off overnight and see what happens...

If still nothing, maybe it's broken?
 
if it is broken, what should i do? can i get it fixed? must i get a new one? do you know how nuch a new one might cost (cheapest possible hehe)
