can't access router config page

[therocketman]

I own an old compusa 4-port router which i use with dsl. I had recently built a new computer and when I tried accessing the router configuration page to port forward, the router page came up. However after I entered in the password, it brought me to a blank page.

I tried going to the configuration page with any other computer on the network and it works. It's just my computer.

Anyone have an idea on how to fix this?

do you have any firewalls running on your computer?

i just have windows firewall up and running, and an antivirus program called avast.

try a repair on your connection, or a reboot

Clear your internet cache. Then try again, or try with a different browser

I tried clearing the internet cache and tried to access with mozilla... both options didnt work. I thought it might have been due to the windows firewall, so I disabled it but still no dice.

Im getting frustrated haha.

Any other ideas?

might be an activeX setting, depends on the coding of the managing app
check those settings as well

On the back of the router, there's a little hole that says "reset". Or there should be. Take a paper clip, hold in the button for around 30 seconds. Go back to your computer, renew your IP address. Log into the router. You'll need to reconfigure any settings that you had on the router before though.
