Tried not 40.1 and 100.1 with 40.2 and 100.2 manually set IPs on a hardwired laptop. Neither worked.

Maybe some other user error? Should I not have set a default gateway while setting manual IP? Should I have disconnected modem from router before trying to access? Point is I wanna be able to access it to see what it’s saying with less hassle. Doesn’t seem like there’s a silver bullet for me.

This is good advice. Thank you.

It is 192.168.40.1. or it was. Google sagemcom fast 3896.

It’s not though cuz that doesn’t work even when I set a manual IP on that subnet while wired in. It used to be 193.168.40.1. then it was 192.168.100.1. now I don’t know what it is. It’s a sagemcom f@st3896.
