I've just re-installed XP.
Trying to set-up a static IP and port forwarding although can't login to my router.
Can ping it fine.
Have done ipconfig /all and know i have right ip addy.
Just when i type that into my browser get windows search web site pop up which is annoying me to the point of suicide!
IP is standard 192.168.1.1.
I used to be able to login to router before ireinstalled XP
Router in question is a ZyXEL prestige 600
Any help appricated.
Steve

And - equally unlikely - is port 80 traffic blocked on your personal firewall over the local network ? You could try disconnecting your router from the outside world and then switching your personal firewall off.
And since you have just reinstalled, are you by accident running two firewalls (XPs and a proprietary one)?

Just tells me that it can't "open search page"
computer is not on a network!
only has AVG free additonal installed which if it has a firewall i can't find and see the settings.
Have had a look to see if port 80 is blocked and there is nothing to suggest that it is or isn't. Where would i check this out?
All help appricated!

In the DOS window type ipconfig/all
Right click on the window blue bar at the top and select edit -> select all, then right click -> edit -> copy. Then past the result here.
If your PCs IP address is in a different range to your router you won't be able to access the router.
Also in network connections, right click on Local Area connection, select properties, double click TCP/IP settings (scroll the window is necessary to see it) and ensure both IP and DNS are set to obtain automatically. The PC will then get its IP address assigned by the router.

In the same DOS window try the following command:
tracert 192.168.1.1 and post what it says. You should only get one line.
Next check your hosts file
find c:\Windows\system 32\drivers\etc\hosts and edit with notepad.
It should only contain a 127.0.0.1 localhost entry after all the # comment lines.
If there is anything else, remove it and try accessing your router again.
Have you tried another browser like firefox?

Yes just the IP is fine.
Can you try downloading firefox and trying that. If that works then its a config setting in IE.
OK, in IE7 (assuming you have this):
1) select tools -> options, click on the connection tab and then on lan button and make sure everything is unticked.
The next bit will reset all IE settings and may remove cookies
2) On Advanced tab click on reset then close the browser, open it up and try to access the router.
3) If that fails, go to the privacy tab, select sites and remove all. Restart browser and try to access router.
4) if that fails on security tab, reset all zones. restart browser and try again.
You have rebooted both PC and router recently? If not that's the first thing to try.

Unable to connect
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 192.168.1.1.
