How do I find the IP address of a Dlink wireless router?

Question

How do I find out the IP address of a DLink Wireless router that I have plugged into my Wireless Router? I want to reach the admin page and change some settings but I dunno how

Solution 1

The way the router is set up is that one of its ports is plugged into the main router, and it's set up to be on the same subnet as that one (ie., my main router gives out IPs at 192.168.1.100 + and the wireless is 192.168.1.100)

The wireless router has its DHCP shut off. It's also supposed to be "work as bridge" mode but I never found that setting. At any rate, it works.

It's the procedure described in the manual under "setting up your wireless router to work as an access point" or similar

Solution 2

Have a look at your own network configuration when connected to the router:

If your IP is something like 192.168.1.X (where X is your IP) then the router will almost always be at 192.168.1.1 (this is the same if your IP is not like 192.168.1.X)

Just replace the X with a 1 in your browser's URL bar and that should take you to the router's admin panel

I find the question unclear, but I believe that the OP has simply put the new router on the network, and has not yet configured it.  If it is not part of the path to the Internet, but is just sitting off to the side, then tracert won't find it.
