Mike,

Have you tried all the usual things?

1. Unplug router
2. Remove all cables except one cable from router to your PC. Especially
remove the cable modem cable
3. Setup your PC for dhcp
4. plug in router, wait for 2 minutes
5. hold down reset button for 30 seconds; wait for 1 minute
6. ifdown eth0, ifup eth0
7. does ifconfig show you have IP 192.168.25.100?
8. try to login at http://192.168.1.1 with your browser. It may be https
BUT the certificate is expired, so you have to fiddle with your browser to
get it to accept the certificate. Konqueror works well for this.
