If its working at your dads friends house. He might of config'd it differntly for his network. resetting it would put it back to default settings.

And id you ever try typing in the damn number?

Oh..I completely missed your post, because after I posted the picture and came back later, I saw that in the computers section it said that gamemaster posted, so I only saw his. Well..I wish I could push the button, but I can't. I'll just stop bothering you guys about this.

If your router has WAN on the back like it does in that picture than maybe you just bought the wrong router? Mine says internet on the back.

Have you consulted the website support section, you can also call the people or speak with them in a little chat box. I've done that before. Don't give up!

maybe other companies put internet instead. but its still a WAN port your plugging it into.

I was trying to answer your questions, but I guess I'm just ignorant when it comes to specifics on computers. And also..I don't know why, but I could not press down the reset button on the router. Thank you for your help though.

i only had 1 real question it just bugged me cuz i asked it like 4 times. and it woulda determined if the router was even reachable by the pc. (which judging by your solution it wasnt)

its fine tho.

WE FIXED IT!!! The problem was the firmware software was too old. We updated it, installed the router on my dad's new computer, and it works now!! I'm so damn happy..thanks all you guys for trying to help.
