8.4 Unable Log In to the Router
If you cannot log in to the router from a computer or wireless devices on your local
network, please check the following:
• If you use an Ethernet connected computer, check if the Ethernet connection between
the computer and the router is working.
• If you use a wireless connected computer or wireless devices, check if the wireless
SSID connection between computer and wireless devices are working.
• If your router’s IP address was changed and you do not know the current IP address,
clear the router’s conguration to factor y default. is sets the router’s IP address to
192.168.1.1.
• Make sure that you are using the correct login information. e default user name is
"admin", and the default password is "admin". Make sure that Caps Lock is o when
you enter this information.
8.5 Unable Access the Internet
If you can access your router but not the internet, check to see if the router can obtain an
IP address from your internet service provider (ISP). Unless your ISP provides a xed IP
address, your router requests an IP address from the ISP.
To check the WAN IP address:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or wireless device that is connected to the
network.
2. Select an external site such as www.asrock.com.tw.
3. Type asrock.router or 192.168.1.1. A login screen should appear.
4. Enter the router’s user name and password. e default user name is "admin", and the
default password is "admin".
5. Press ADVANCED > Next button. e ADVANCED home screen should appear.
6. Check if a valid IP address is shown for the internet port. If 0.0.0.0 is shown, it means
your router has not obtained an IP address from your ISP. If your router cannot
obtain an IP address from the ISP, you may need to force your cable or DSL modem
to recognize your new router by restarting your network.
If your router is still unable to obtain an IP address from the ISP, the problem might be one
of the following:
• Your internet service provider (ISP) might require a login program.
• If your ISP requires a login, the login name and password might be set incorrectly.
• Your ISP might check for your computer’s host name.
• If your ISP allows only one Ethernet MAC address to connect to internet and checks
English
for your computer’s MAC address, do one of the following:
- Inform your ISP that you bought a new network device and ask them to use the
router’s MAC address.
- Congure your router to clone your computer’s MAC address.
8.6 Wireless Connectivity
If you are having trouble to connect wireless to the router, try to isolate the problem:
Does the wireless device or computer that you are using nd your wireless network?
• If you disable the router’s SSID broadcast, then your wireless network will be
hidden and will not be displayed in your wireless client’s scanning list.
• If not, check the dashboard Wi-Fi on/o button from the Web GUI. If it is
o, you can press the Wi-Fi on/o button on the dashboard to turn the router
wireless radios back on.
If your wireless device nds your network but the signal strength is weak, check
these conditions:
• Is your router too far from your computer or too close? Place your computer
near the router but at least 6 feet away and see whether the signal strength
improves.
8.7 Restore to the factory default settings
You can return the router to its factory settings. Use the end of a paper clip or a
similar object to press and hold the Reset button on the back of the router for at
least ten seconds.
Go to Advanced > Administration > Restore/Save, and press "Restore".
