How to determine subnets?

How can I determine a router's IP that is not running DHCP?

  • I have a router that I configured many many moons ago.. The IP I gave it was in the 192.168.xxx.xxx subnet. All I can remember about it is it wasn't in the .0.xxx or .1.xxx subnets. I need to access the router while preserving the settings, so a HARD reset is out. It's not running DHCP so I can't just access it via a dynamic setting on a workstation and determine the IP that way. I don't know the full subnet so IP sniffers are out... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Answer:

    You can't get there from here. Seriously. You could try 192.168.x.1, for all values of x from 0 to 255, but if you didn't give the router the address of 1 (192.168.x.1), you have almost 65,000 combinations to try. (There's no "back door magic address" you can use.)

I believe IPCONFIG /ALL will give the gateway address, which will probably be the router address. Then use the browser to that address and see if it accesses the router. Good Luck

Open a cmd prompt on your computer Start-->run-->cmd and then hit enter Type in "tracert www.yahoo.com" without the quotes and hit enter The first IP address that comes back is your default gateway (which is your wireless router)
