C6250/AC1600 Internet works on macbook but not LG TV or iPhone
I'm having a bit of a perculiar problem with my router. I am able to connect to the internet just fine on my macbook, however I am not able to access the router settings at routerlogin.net or 192.1...

Try 192.168.100.1
Try a factory reset on the modem and setup from scratch using a wired PC and web browser...

FURRYe38 Thanks for the advice.
192.168.100.1 works the same as 192.168.0.1, working on my iphone and taking a while before failing on my laptop ("the server unexpededly dropped the connection" in safari).
In order to make a wired connection, I'd have to buy an extra ethernet cord and ethernet to usb-c dongle, which would be annoying. Are you sure that would help? The fact that I can't access the router settings from my laptop is odd but my real concern is connecting my TV to the interet. The fact that it (and my phone) can see and connect to the wifi networks but not access the internet once connected makes me think the issue is with the firmware or router settings. I'm not having any difficulty changing the router settings from my phone.

Try Opera or Firefox on your Macbook

Neither browser works with either 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.100.1.
Opera gives "This site can’t be reached 192.168.100.1 took too long to respond." and Firefox gives "The connection has timed out The server at 192.168.100.1 is taking too long to respond.:
