Router stopped working…
LockedHey all, here is the problem. I was at work, online…when all of a sudden all 4 PC’s that are on the Network lost Internet connection. Here is the Setup:
512kbps Cable Modem –> Netgear 4 Port Router
(RP614v2)
–> 3Net 8 Port Switch –> 4 PC’sI went through the on/off steps with the Modem, Router, Switch and PC’s. With no luck, I connected the Modem directly to the Switch and found that the ISP part was fine. The problem is at the Router. I can’t log onto the Router anymore either…http://192.168.0.1
This causes a Network problem because while there is Internet access, I set the IP’s on each PC manually to allow Remote Connections, and other functions with in the use of the office network. Since the router doesn’t work I can’t have both the Manual IP’s/Network and Internet access at the same time…it is one or the other. All the lights on the router were fine…Internet, Power, Ports etc… I lost connectivity while I was working…all 4 PC lost the connection at the same time???
Everything has been working fine for a long time until today…What is the suspected culprate…I am leaning towards the Router. Should I replace it since I thinks I have narrowed down to that being the problem?
Here is how I had the IP’s configured:
IP:192.168.0.2 through 0.7
Gateway:192.168.0.1 (router)
DNS:192.168.1.2I have had that config for a while with no problems…why all of a sudden???
Like I said taking the Router out of the picture eliminates the problem..except for the whole NETWORK THING…PLEASE HELP ASAPTHANKS
