I finally got my g.fast service yesterday.
I upgraded the Vigor 166 to the latest UK firmware prior to using it on the line. Otherwise, it is left with all the default settings at the moment. This includes its IP which is 192.168.2.1. All good.
My question is though, previously I had a Vigor 130 in my setup and could connect to the modem directly from my browser (my main network is on different subnet 192.168.178.1/24) by using its IP address, which is the same as the Vigor 166. However I can no longer connect to the modem this way, although I can plug my laptop into the other LAN port on the modem and connect to it that way. Not as convenient. My entire network, router setup has not changed so am a little puzzled.
So - does anyone know what I should change in the modem config to allow a connection via my browser on my main network?
