Victor, What is the IP address of the host from which you're trying to access the router? If it's not on the 192.168.1.0 subnet then you need to configure the interface on the host for both subnets. As root (or 'sudo' if you prefer) run 'ifconfig -a' on your host. That will tell you the name of the interface connected to the router; probably eth0. Now you need to add a default route on eth0 to 192.168.1.0, but you want to use the same last digit as on the host you're using. Again as root, type 'route add default 192.168.1.n netmask 255.255.255.0 gw <your network gateway IP address> eth0:1'. The 'n' is the same host IP as you use for 192.168.0.0 (or whatever your local subnet is).
