I used to be able to access the web interface of my Thomson DWG849 router/modem through both 192.168.100.1 and 192.168.87.1, but now, suddenly, I can't anymore.

I have tried resetting the router without any luck.

My internet still works, though, and IP-config still say that the default gateway is 192.168.87.1.

Any ideas on what has happened and how to fix it?

What happens when you go to 192.168.87.1 exactly? Have you tried to just reboot the router? – m4573r Oct 5 '12 at 10:27
I get error "101" in Chrome: "Connection was reset". Similar error pages in IE and Firefox. Yes, I tried restarting it too. No luck. – Andreas Strandfelt Oct 5 '12 at 11:11

If you reset the router, its IP configuration will revert to factory defaults. What was the factory default IP of your router. Usually it is 192.168.1.1, 192.168.2.1, 192.168.1.254 etc.

Try both http://192.168.x.x and https://192.168.x.x

It was 192.168.87.1 by default when I got it from my provider, Stofanet in Denmark. – Andreas Strandfelt Oct 5 '12 at 11:07
