i cant seem to connect to my router using the ip address in the browser bar,

i know that my ip address is correct but when i type it in it just comes up as not found,

i got my ip address from the status bar of my network connection, ive used Run-cmd-ping and all seems fine.

Any ideas would be great thanks

Does the IP start with 192.168.x.x, 172.16.x.x, or 10.x.x.x?

it starts with 192.168.

im using a laptop with a belkin wireless network adapter.

Telling us your network adapter is useless. We need to know your router. In any case, look for the *router's* model over at portforward.com and follow the instructions.

Make sure you set your computer to have a static IP up outside of the router's DHCP range -- so make it something like 192.168.1.50 or whatever.
