Help setting up my router
I'm having a hard time setting up this router to my IMAC computer. Every time I try to log into my routerlogin I keep getting the message: You are not connected to your WIFI router network. But I am....
Is the ethernet cable from the modem connected to the internet port of the router?
Can you give us the router model?
Also, can you let us know the IP address assigned to the mac (generally it will be 192.168.1.x or 10.0.0.x). There is guide that includes mac pc's here: https://kb.iu.edu/d/aapa
I had the ethernet cable connected from the router to the techicolor modem.
Router model: Technicolor TC8305C
IP
192.168.1.1
Ok, so we know, now, that your ISP modem has a built-in router. Let's revisit the questions asked of you earlier. Please answer them.
Is your iMac connected to the Technicolor's Wi-Fi network instead of the Netgear's Wi-Fi?
What is the model of your Netgear router?
You stated that the Netgear router is connected to the Technicolor but you didn't state which port on the Netgear is connected. You were specifically asked whether the Internet port on the Netgear was connected.
What is the iMac's IP address? It's a private IP address, so there's no harm disclosing this.
The iMac is connected to the Technicolor's wifi network, not the netgear. We haev a NetGear Nighthawk x6 AC3200 Tri-band wifi router.
The Netgear router is connected on port 1. As far as out iMac's IP address, where would I find it?
