Re: Accessing the config page

Your using a 255.255.0.0 subnet, this is going to stop the 192.168.100.1 request being passed through to the router.

Basically by using a 255.255.0.0 subnet, your telling the router that the first two octets of the IP address intentify the network, and the last two describe hosts on your network. In your case, when you call up 192.168.100.1, your router is not passing the request on to it's WAN port because it thinks the device is on the LAN side of your network.
