Hard reset seems to have worked. Thanks!
For the curious:
First thing that happened was the router reported searching for another router on the network. Didn't find one and proceeded to reset the router to factory specs.
Once that came up I restored my previous settings that I had saved while I still had access to the router.
Still curious what it set itself to last month when I tested my olde 3700 (which, incidentally works fine behind an AT&T router at my other house -- and has a lot more range and SPEED than the AT&T.

I have the same problem with this model and am guessing it started with I piggybacked a 3700 to it to test the 3700 and find what password I've set.
The 4500 is working fine, but I can't access the router. Did the 4500 set a new IP address for itself and let the 3700 have 192.168.1.1 ?
The 3700 is now 150 mile away and working fine. The 4500 is working fine too, my PCs, iPhones, TV, etc. all access it nicely.
Can I do a hard reset of the 4500 and gain access to it?
ipconfig shows it's sitting at 192.168.1.1 but I can't access it.
Any assistance appreciated.
