I have Lilnksys WAG200G ADSL Home Gateway, and always use 192.168.1.1 on web browser to access the router's settings. My friend also has the same WAG200G and same firmware, but he cannot use 192.168.1.1 to access the router. IE will always show "Page can not be displayed". Strangely, if he use 198.162.1.1 (instead of 192.168.1.1), he will at least get to the login screen. But then, even after supplying the correct username & password, the login screen keeps refusing him.
I tried 198.162.1.1 on my computer & modem, and it appeared to be working too, because I got the same login screen like when I use 192.168.1.1. However, I got the same login problem because my username & password were refused. When I used 192.168.1.1, the login screen accept my username & password. What is the difference between 198.162.1.1 and 192.168.1.1 ??? The only difference between the 2 login screens, is that 198.162.1.1 will present me the same login screen with an additional message "Level_15_access".
Researching 198.162.1.1 on the net, I can not conclude what this IP is all about. But it seems this IP is also frequently used /refered to in some Linksys routers. Some people seems to use 198.162.1.1 to access their LinkSys router's settings, and some others use 192.168.1.1. However, LinkSys claims that 192.168.1.1 is their default IP address to access the router's settings. I got totally confused. What is 198.162.1.1 then ???
It seems to work partially, at least upto the login screen.
