grayed out settings
When I go into my router settings I find a lot of them grayed out. I cannot go into LAN settings or port forwarding and a lot of other settings. Why is this? Am I missing something?

Is that accurate? Firmware version? Connected to what?

On some models (firmware versions), that status is mentioned
prominently (in yellow?) near the model number on its management web
site pages. Otherwise, a "router" LAN IP address which does _not_ endin ".1" might be a hint.
