Basically I'm trying to use an old router to set up a guest WiFi network. Following advice on the Internet I first changed the old router IP address to 192.168.2.1 (main router IP is 192.168.1.1).
For some reason, after I changed the router IP I can't connect to the router. This is just with my PC connected directly to the old router and typing 192.168.2.1 into the browser. I restarted the router and the PC but still can't connect. The only way I can get back into the router is to restore factory defaults. I tried several times with different IP addresses, the only one that worked was 192.168.1.100. I don't really want to use that as I want to use a different range to my main router. Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong?
