Can't access new routers settings page

Ok so here's the deal. My workplace has free wifi but it kinda sucks but my boss let me install my own router so i could get a better internet connection in my office.

I bought a Linksys WRT 1900ACS and connected it to the switch near my office and the router works since i can connect to it and am able to get a good internet connection, but the problem is that i can't for the life of me access the setting of this router. 192.168.1.1 or the linksys smart wifi page doesn't work either (i can log in but it tells me to install some firmware but i can't install the firmware since i can't access the router).

Now i tried some troubleshooting on my own and wasn't successful and even the Linksys tech support were kind of lost...

Connecting directly to the switch does not work as i cannot get a internet connection from it for some reason but once i connect the router to the switch and connect to the router it magically works.

I found out that there once was a it guy that set up the existing network and there is a big Zyxel ZyWall USG 100 that the switch is connected to. So when i write in the IP address to access the router it takes me to the Zyxel's log in page.

Here is a picture i made in paint to help you visualize how the network is connected.

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
