Hey guys, I just bought D-Link DIR-505 wireless mini router and I use for repeater from my Belkin N600DB for my home sharing, but I can not connect it to my mobile stuff, when I set the router n my gadget autonatically. if I set both manually, they can connect through wifi easily. But I cant access its setting page. If there is someone has more experience, please help me to solve this. :help:
Thanks

Im assuming you didn't change the ip of either routers.


The primary router's ip should be something like : "192.168.1.1"
And the secondary router's IP should be something like: "192.168.0.1" or something

If both are 192.168.1.1, then when you point your browser to that IP, you will either get the Router you're connected on. Or the webpage may show neither of the Router's admin pages.

To access the DIR 505 you enter in http://dlinkrouter from your browser. If this is not working, reset the device follow the steps on the router page to setup the Repeater through the manual.

OMG! I didn't notice that. Both of my router n Dlink have the same default IP ;)

You're welcome, Glad I could help. I encountered this silly little issue a lot while using my Modem which has the same IP, and my two Bridged Routers. :D

And then I realized that it has to be changed after having the routers reboot or act "dumb" :D
