if I understand correctly that you have the PC connected to the new router only, then I would be inclined to maybe try remove power from the router, then re apply power. Then re boot the PC. Then if your numbers still do not work, then try more conventional numbers such as 192.168.1.1 good luck -- alan cocks Ubuntu user -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
