Hi Tom,
Usually, the 192.168.0.1 address is the address of your modem/router. I
assume you have DHCP enabled on your computer so that the router assigns an
IP address to your computer. Do you know what the IP address of the
computer is? You can open a command window on your computer and type
ipconfig . That will tell you what IP address has been assigned to your
computer. With only one computer, 192.168.0.2 may be the IP address
assigned to it.
I just looked at the manual for your router. It has a built in firewall.
Have you tried turning that off? A router on its own because of the network
address translation is a firewall. So an extra software firewall while nice
could be causing some problems. Since you've looked at the router logs I
assume you can get into the router.
I've got a couple of other ideas, but try that and let us know.

Subject: [PCWorks] IP Addresses
I'm still having trouble connecting to Internet audio
streams. I've tried four different players and it's the same
with all of them. I have to open and close the player several
times before I get any audio. I have waited as long as five
minutes thinking maybe there was a lot of buffering going on.
There are no error messages.
Yesterday I was looking at the system log file provided by my
modem/router (ActionTec GT724R) and I saw where there were
errors in trying to connect to "192.168.0.2." I normally use
"http://192.168.0.1"; to access the modem/router which works
just fine. If I use "http://192.168.0.0"; or
"http://192.168.0.2"; I get website not found. I'm guessing
the problem is between my computer and the router part of the
modem/router.
Is there a way I can have only "192.168.0.1" be accessed?
There is only one computer connected to the network.
Thanks for any ideas, guesses or comments.
Tom
