    Firstly just read this all at one time and then do changes according to this.

    go to your router's default gateway which is generally 192.168.1.1 on internet explorer

    If u r not sure then ask your isp.

    If it asks for a password then enter your username and password which is "admin" and "admin" resp. generally.

    "If page doesn't display then go to your network connections and then right click you local area connection or wireless connection (if you connect through wifi).

    then click properties, then double click on internet protocol version 4 (ipv4) and then click on use the following ip address

    In subnet mask type 255.255.0.0

    In default gateway type 192.168.1.1 (your router's gateway)

    In IP Address type same as default gateway and then add 2 to the last digit.

    e.g Mine gateway is 192.168.1.1 so 1+2=3 hence i write 192.168.1.3"

    Now try to open your default gateway in internet explorer.

    e.g. i will open 192.168.1.1 as this is my router's gateway and u shud know yours

    If it opens then

    follow picture by picture tutorial from this http://picasaweb.google.com/chirag.mom/RouterConfi...

    and now reboot your router and remove your settings of your local area connection that we have made and change it to obtain an ip address automatiocally.

    Now connect your wire of local area connection or connect your wifi.

    Source(s): The words can be different in your router's page from what i told u but u need to understand them. e.g. there can be setup or wan setup or similar instead of advanced setup. NOTE: BACKUP YOUR SETTINGS FIRSTLY Also we need to change only WAN settings and not LAN OR WLAN.
