Can't access Modem/Router via WiFi

Recently purchased Nighthawk AC1900 and am trying to set it up.

 

If I connect it via ethernet I can log into the modems login page but I can't via WiFi.

 

I can connect to both the 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz networks but when I try to access the modems log in page via WiFi it just times out.

 

I've tried resetting modem and restating the PC.

 

Is there something obvious that I'm missing?  I just find it strange I can get to the log in page via ethernet buut not WiFi.

 

Thanks for any suggestions.

Perhaps you just started the network in the correct order.

 

  • Turn off and unplug modem.
  • Turn off router and computers.
  • Plug in and turn on modem. Wait 2 minutes for it to connect.
  • Turn on the router and wait 2 minutes for it connect.
  • Turn on computers and rest of network.
