Question

Your SOHO router has failed and you have installed a new router. The old router's static IP address on the network is 192.168.0.1. The new router has a static IP address of 10.0.0.1. You go to a computer to configure the new router and enter 10.0.0.1 in the browser address box. The router does not respond. You open a command prompt window and try to ping the router, which does not work. Next, you verify that the router has connectivity and you see that its local connection light is blinking, indicating connectivity. What is the most likely problem and its best solution?

a. The computer you are using to configure the router has a corrupted TCP/IP configuration. Restart the computer.
b. The router is defective. Return it for a full refund.
c. The computer and the router are not in the same subnet. Release and renew the IP address of the computer.
d. The computer and the router are not in the same subnet. Change the subnet mask assigned to the computer

Answer 1

(C)- The computer and the router are not in the same subnet. Release and renew the IP address of the computer.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can't connect to a 10.0.0.1 device that exists outside of your network, meaning that you can't ping or log in to a 10.0.0.1 device unless it resides inside the local network you're using to access it (with the exception of the DDNS).
