    Router Wierdness

    Last night I decided to have a poke around in the router's config as I was bored. Typed in the ip adress, logon box came up & I logged in, only to be faced with a blank page. Tried it in IE, Firefox & Opera, Still nothing. KVM'd to my shuttle, same thing. Turned off all privacy controls, no pop up or ad blockers working, firewalls were off (checked in taskman) Blank page. Re-booted the router, rebooted the pc's, same thing. Still connecting to the internet thro it ok, so what's up?
    It's an MRi Sohospeed 4 port router, abt 3-4 yrs old.

    Should I replace it with an old NETGEAR RP614 Cable/DSL Firewall Router & 4 Port Switch I have hanging around, or is it something to do with settings somewhere?

    Okeydokey, I'll give it a whirl when I get home from work. Like I say, it's funny as it still works per-se, just I cant config it from the normal web interface that I'm used to.

    I had an issue with a router where I couldn't gain access to the panel too. A simple power-cycle with a 20s pause cured this. Only ever happened on 1 router - weird connexant chipset based ADSL router I picked up for a cracking price

    That happened to me a few days ago, so I returned it to factory settings using the reset button and everything was fine .

    That's what I was going to say. I've had problems with routers like that. A reset usually cures it.
