It could be an AOL DNS Server, it could be an AOL Firewall. Going to http://202.27.184.3 returns a blank page, but that's Xtra's Primary DNS Server >Also, 172.168 is the correct IP range for an internal only network. No, it's not. The closest IP Ranges to that would be either 192.168 which seems more likely, or 172.16. The reason behind it is, 192.168 and 172.16 can't be routed over the internet. All other IP Addresses can. Therefore by assigning a router an External IP Address, it has 2 External Connections possible in comparision to 1 external 1 internal. Also, that IP Address could cause conflict with AOL's servers CyberChuck |

| 137962 | 2003-04-23 03:02:00 | Thanks to all for your replys. Its helping me head in the right direction. The Modem ip Address I gave may be incorrect as my memory ain't as flash as it used to be. It is a Dick Smith ADSL/4 Hub USB Router i'm using connecting to xtra. the install all went ok as I can Ping the IP address fine. The manual only refers to the modem settings and nothing about what the I.E settings should be The manual states after installing the drivers to "open web brouser and enter the IP address" to log into the Router interface setup. However Of course at the moment when opening the web brouser, the dial-up connection comes up. I have now removed the "dial up" settings and am asking what do I need in the LAN settings instead. |

You should just be able to type http://172 . 168 . 0 . 1 (or whatever the IP Address of the router is) and then IE should automatically navigate off to the routers web-based administration page . You are not using any ProxyServers or anything are you? CyberChuck |

| 137964 | 2003-04-23 04:02:00 | Cyberchuck, Thanks, thats just the info I was after. From now on when I click on the IE icon to connect to the internet Do I have to enter the IP Address & log into the router each time , or will it go strait to my home page, Currently Xtra.? |

| 137965 | 2003-04-23 04:09:00 | No problem. Providing you've told Windows what to use as it's Gateway and everything (which I think you have), then when you open IE you can go straight to Xtra's homepage. You only need to log into the router should you need to change something with it (maybe your internet password or something) CyberChuck |
