How do I get to my router's configuration screen, after setting it up as a switch and wireless access point?

The main network is using a router wired through the building,

in one room I connected my DI-624 wireless router to the wall - and two computers wired to the router, one wireless to the router. This worked fine for internet, but I couldn't access the main network (just computers attached to the DI-624 network).

So I disabled DHCP (turning the router into a switch I guess). Works great, all computers (even wireless - after some tweaking) connect to both the internet and main network.

BUT, now I cannot get to the DI-624 CONFIGURATION. I have tried all sorts of IP addresses, looked at the default gateway (tried that address), just can't get back to it?

I'm in not stressing too much because it works, but I can't change any settings anymore?

To access it (based on what you have said) you need to disconnect the router from the WAN then connect.

What is happening is that the default address for the router and the default address for the router feeding it are identical! So they conflict. When you turned off DHCP you took out the routing that the DI624 was doing and turned it into a simple bridge. You can't access it because the "other" router blocks its network address.

In the "worst case" you will need to reset the router to factory defaults using the reset switch on the router, then connect to it for configuration.
