Disabled NAT by accident, now I'm stuck with activating my router every 10'th minute

Hello folks! I know this seriously sounds dumb, but I had problems with my NAT configuration, and wanted to see what would happen if I turned it off (what an idiot I was). I'm now stuck with being able to access my internet providers activation website, where it updates the routers software automaticly, and then allows for internet access for around 10 minutes, before it automaticly directs me to that specific site again.

 

While I was able to access the internet, I tried connecting to 192.168.0.1 which is my default gateway, or rather, should be. It turns out from a quick ipconfig in the CMD, that this is my default gateway: 212.130.79.1

 

This is a copy paste of the whole ipconfig:

Any help would be much appreciated!

I actually found the solution, with some help from one of my friends, who just happens to be a good person to know, if you've got problems of this kind. I connected my laptop, to my router, and went to 192.168.100.1 which turned out to be a temporary solution instead of the normal 192.168.0.1 which simply did not work. I then turned on NAT again, restarted my router, and everything worked just fine!

So what do you think you should be connecting to? What is supposed to be your DHCP Server and on what router?
