Hi Mark, Thank you very much for your reply. I thought I had my router name & model# saved somewhere but, I don't! I have all my modem info saved but, that doesn't do me any good at the moment. Is there somewhere in the computer that will tell me what brand the router is? I've looked in the device manager & in the control panel but, I'm not sure if I looked in the correct places. I'm running XP Pro, I forgot to mention this in my original post. Thanks again. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.

If you know the name and mottle number of your router, you can usually find the IP address on line. Anyway this should open what looks like a web page. However, it is actually coming from within your router. This page usually has all the access to the settings for the router. One thing I do know from experience is that you may have to try a few different IP addresses since manuactorers may use several for different mottles ETC. I hope this helps.

All help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you all very much. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iBarstool.
