Router Help

[JoelDee]

Hiya just downloading a torrent using azzureus and recently i've realised i've been getting really s**t download speeds... Azzureus just popped this message up:

Now i'm not sure what the default IP address is of my router to get ina dn enable this port so has anyone got any ideas how I can get in or maybe how I can get my default IP address?

Cheers
Joel

What make/model is your router?

 

[JoelDee]

Well I have 2:

1 Origo USB router with 1 network port on back and
1 BT wireless router with 4 network ports on back

The Origo is setup on my computer to the usb and has a patch cable going to the wireless router in my brothers bedroom which then connects to his PC and we have 2 wireless laptops in the house.

(I havent had time to get round to taking the shitty origo usb one out and setting the BT wireless router up and just having 1)

 

[Griff]

You'll need to open/forward the port on both then.

Origo instructions - http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Origo/ASR-8400/Azureus.htm

Which BT router is it?

 

[JoelDee]

I dont know the default IP for my origo router

 

[Griff]

I dont know the default IP for my origo router

Did you read the instructions?

"blah blah blah blah... By default the ip address should be set to 10.0.0.2.. blah blah...."

 

[JoelDee]

yea and 10.0.0.2 isnt working

 

[Griff]

Then someones changed it.

In all honesty your setup isn't helping. Seeing as you've got a wireless router in the house you should ditch the Origo and get a PCI/USB wireless card for your PC.

 

[JoelDee]

OK cheers for your help anyways matey I will try and find this IP of my router

 

[The Hoff]

Start-->Run-->cmd.exe

ipconfig /all

In those details it should give you the gateway address your PC uses, typically it will be 10.0.0.XX

 

[JoelDee]

default gateway is 10.0.0.2 but it wont let me into it????

Also why the f**k is my ip address 10.0.0.7??????????????

 

[KDF]

For faster speeds on Azureus dont use the default Port of 6881, ISP's have been known to restrict speed on default file sharing ports.

 

[JoelDee]

default gateway is 10.0.0.2 but it wont let me into it????

Also why the f**k is my ip address 10.0.0.7??????????????

???????????

 

[Ibanezman]

Normal router address should be like 192.168.0.1 \ 192.168.1.1 etc

Sounds like you may have been tinkering ? lol

If your address is so weird, try a factory reset job on it or something

Also, I wouldn't use that port with torrents, change it

 

[JoelDee]

I wanna know why my ip address is bloody 10.0.0.7? LOL

 

[Daz]

I wanna know why my ip address is bloody 10.0.0.7? LOL

Uh? Why? Whats wrong with it?

It's a perfectly valid private IP address.

Origo's default to 10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 with 10.0.0.2 being the router.

 

[JoelDee]

ahh right OK then well I cant just use the BT wireless one as it doesnt have usb or adsl on it
