Most DSL modems and Wi-Fi routers come with a factory default IP address of
192.168.1.1
So when you try to connect to 192.168.1.1 with both of them in the network, the
behavior is unpredictable (unless you changed the wireless router's IP address
to some other subnet).
As a process of elimination,
I would suggest that you connect directly to the DSL modem from your laptop
using a patch cord (Ethernet cable) and then try connecting to the Admin
interface. you should also check to see that the DSL modem has issued you an ip
address in the same range (192.168.1.x) . If this is not so, then you can
safely assume that the IP address of your DSL modem is not 192.168.1.1 and it
is generally the first ip in whatever subnet it has issued you an iP from
(again the assumption here is that whoever changed the IP followed the same
logic).
Other things to check:-
a) Port number of admin interface might be non-default (i.e 81 instead of 80)
b) running wireshark (ethereal) when you try to connect might throw up some
more info in the captured data.
Also, as an afterthough, what OS/Browser are you using on the Laptop?
