[QUOTE="frailer5, post: 1022586, member: 148406"] Have a home network on a Netgear 4-port router. On cable. New cable modem installed a few weeks ago, working perfectly. Decided to give OpenDNS a go, so reset to their DNSs. At one stage after the change, I could access the router utility under 192.168.0.1, but recall it having some other characters at the end, like 'forms', or similar. Had, I thought, saved that to Bookmarks, but now can't get back into the router admin utility, which I would need to do if I needed to change back. I could probably reset via Network Utility, not sure, someone may know; but doesn't feel good being locked out at this stage. Certainly getting timeouts on 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.1.1. 192.168.0.1 Pings OK, and is showing as the router IP. My (tech) level is relatively low, but am happy to move outside the comfort zone. :D Oh, 10.6, Mac Mini Intel. All Macs on network accessing 'net, no trouble...I just don't like being 'locked out'.
