Some common numbers are 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.0. They depend on the manufacturer of the modem/router. Somebody, perhaps an install disk, has set your computer to use the router at that address. If you open Network control panel - er select Network in the System Preferences option - you may be able to find the exact address. You might have to choose to edit the settings in order to see the numbers. There WILL be a way out without changing anything. The proper number ought to be in some paperwork that came with your broadband installation. You might also check the web site of whoever supplies your connection and sends you a bill. When you have the proper address, or perhaps by trying a few options just type the likes of: http://192.168.1.128 in your browser as an address to go to. <ducking> You might also try typing: netstat -nr in Terminal.app. The default line should show the address you're looking for. </ducking> -- --> The U.
