MR70 Channel Selection

My MR70 wifi mesh will not allow me to change the channel that I am on. When I attempt to go to http://www.routerlogin.net or the IP address, I am unsuccessful in reaching any page receiving the message "this page cannot be reached". I'm just trying to optimize my home internet. Thank you for any advice or input.

    What browser are you using? Happens with other browsers? 

    Try accessing the MR at 192.168.1.1? 

     

    What Firmware version is currently loaded?
    What is the Mfr and model# of the Internet Service Providers modem/ONT the NG router is connected too?

    Do you have any indication that the existing setup is causing problems?

     

    It is all too easy to play around in ways that do more harm than good.

     

    In general, the defaults work best for most people.

     

    Just another user with time on their hands.
