So I have a router connected to my main modem downstairs through a LAN cable, via the LAN ports on both routers. My routers default gateway is usually 192.168.1.1
, and my modem's gateway is 192.168.18.1
. But for some reason whenever I restart my router, my routers gateway is set to my modems gateway... I can't access my routers gateway, I can only access my modem's gateway. But after like a day or so, it changes again and my routers gateway is set back to 192.168.1.1
. Why is this happening?
Also, if its possible, I want to change my routers gateway to my modems gateway, because my router blocks a lot of websites unnecessarily. Basically I want both my modem and router to have the same gateway 192.168.18.1
. How would one go about doing that?
@user1686 I can access this gateway because like I said, after a day it changes back to its default gateway. This is my routers gateway because it says this gateway on the back of the router. Also I highly doubt it has anything to do with my computer because the random website blocking on the default gateway happens on every device connected, not just my computer.
@harrymc I actually have no idea, I just learnt what a DHCP server is... so I should disable DHCP server on my router right?
