Netgear local IP
Posted by Tx2 on June 7th, 2004



Do Netgear favour a more common IP for their routers?

I have been asked to configure one for someone who is unable to access
it via his browser interface, and i have no idea what the IP of the
thing is.

Is there a way of finding out via a utility of something?

As i suspected (my Draytek is) but this one can't be accessed using that
IP. Guess i'll have to reset it to factory default ....

GetIf is a great (free) SNMP utility that also includes an IP
Discovery window. (see http://www.wtcs.org/snmp4tpc/getif.htm).

It will send out pings very rapidly on your local LAN (you can
configure the number of pings and the timeout values), so you should
be able to find out fairly quickly what IP address your Netgear router
is (as long as it hasn't been set up with a "non-private" address.

Nope .... the IP had been changed, dunno how, but all sorted now.

Why not just do a simple tracert "somewhere on the internet" (eg tracert
www.google.com) from a command prompt?

The first IP (providing the computer is connected directly to the router) in
the list will be that of the router.

unfortunately, the router was not connected as the config was screwed,
and we didn't know at the time what the IP was to get in via a browser
interface.
