We can see that your WAN ip is 192.168.1.3

Maybe it helps if I will also say that 192.168.1.1 will not work.

You have to set the Local IP address to something different then 192.168.1.1 as we do not know the netmask of the primary router (but normally using 192.168.2.1 should work) lets use 172.17.17.1 netmask 255.255.255.0

After that Save
After that Apply
After that Reboot the router
After that Reboot the attached client

Then when the router and your client (the PC you are working on) have rebooted, login to the router at 172.17.17.1


Nope, .1.3 is for another device.
Wan address for my router ddwrt is 192.168.1.14
Anyway, since I already tried .2.1 and nothing happened, I was trying with 192.168.1.254 with subnet 255.255.255.0 and gateway on 192.168.1.1 (ip of primary modem). Applied and rebooted everything but nothing happened Sad


I have a Netgear R8000 and it is connected by wire to ISP modem with gateway 192.168.1.1. The photos show my setup and it works with my wireless and wired devices which connect to it giving the devices their ip addresses.
You must set the time zone
I am currently using build r45863, the most recent build.

Did you save, apply, reboot? Is it just not sticking, the 192.168.2.1 address? It should've kicked you out of the webUI when you applied. Perhaps if you were configuring via wired ethernet port on a laptop instead of using your phone over wireless...


It worked 😭😭😭 but I need to say that I was already working on my laptop via Ethernet. It worked after I rebooted my laptop as well. Before I was only rebooting my router but not rebooting laptop it was not working. Guys, sorry for this anyway. You’ve been amazing to me. Thank you 😭❤️

Glad to hear you got it sorted out.
