What do you expect.
A router gives out its setting to the network adapter you have DHCP.
If you log into a router and change its Sub net address then you have to manually change the settings of the Ethernet adapter of the client machine.
Since your old setting given to computer Ethernet adapter was.
example IP 192.168.0.2
sub net 255.255.255.0
Where to access the router the gateway is always the first IP address in the range eg 192.168.0.1
via Dhcp : Its setting to access the network.
Basically you are no longer on the network due to the fact that the inital sub net was 255.255.255.0
And is now 255.255.255.255.
Reset the Ethernet adapter to release it and obtain the new IP and sub net settings.
It is now treated by windows as a new network.
Because of Upnp also.
To access the network again you would have to go into the Ethernet adapter property config.
And set an ip in the routers range eg: 192.168.0.2
Then setup the sub net of 255.255.255.255
And the gateway to be used. 192.168.0.1.
Router client is connected to where Dhcp gives out settings.

A subnet of 255.255.255.255 is a single host subnet. That means there can only be one device on that network. If the device is the router, you can't also put your computer on that subnet. In other words you need to try again to do a factory reset on that router. Why did you change the subnet to 255.255.255.255?

a hard 30/30/30 reset is when you hold the reset button for 30 seconds, let all the lights come back on, and do it 2 more times, Is that how you resetted it?
