Most       routers I've seen not only have a label with the make and model, but       also have labels listing its LAN Ethernet address.              If there really is no label, can you access the router's web pages or       TELNET to it? [Use the router's LAN address (your computer must know       it).] If even that doesn't find anything and it's a cable modem, try       http://192.168.1.100/ (Time Warner Cable's cable modems used that).        -WBE              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
