How do I access the control panel of my E3000 when connected THROUGH another router?

[stillrivereditions]

How do I access the control panel of my Cisco E3000 router when connected THROUGH my Comcast Business router/modem? I have tried several IPs with no luck, I can only log into my Comcast Router with 10.1.10.1 

Thank you,
Mark

this depends on the full configuration?
- what IP-address do you have when connecting "through"  the router?
- is there NAT involved?

- what IP addresss does the E3000 router have ?
- are any access-lists that limit management access ?
- if the comcast router itself already uses ports 80 or 443,

   you may need to configure port-forwarding on the comcast router so external port 8080/8443 is mapped to the E3000 80/443

10.1.10.1

no

10.1.10.25
- are any access-lists that limit management access ?

I do not know
- if the comcast router itself already uses ports 80 or 443,  you may need to configure port-forwarding on the comcast router so external port 8080/8443 is mapped to the E3000 80/443

will look into this

if you know the E3000 has address 10.1.10.25, that wil be the one to access ?

but.....

the E3000 only allows this after being enabled configured to do so from the WAN port!
Linksys E3000 User Guide
Remote Management To permit remote access of the Router from the Internet (outside the local network),
select Enabled. Otherwise, keep the default, Disabled.
-> first connect to the E3000 on it's LAN port and see if you can access the management interface from there

I have tried connecting to the ethernet port on it called internet, I also tried to connect to it via one of the other ethernet ports and have same results.

When I try to access through browser I get this screen. Connecting to the router (called SRE Hotspot) I enter the password and get nothing.

from this picture I don't think 10.1.10.25 is the ip adress of the E3000!
the web page should look like page-13 in the Linksys E3000 User Guide

reset the E3000 to factory defaults

install the Lynksys connect app on your mobile device

connect to the E3000 using this app and then configure where needed

Can not set to factory settings if I can not get into control panel. catch 22

[pieterh]

yes you can!
have you searched in the user guide I linked in my earlier post? -> there is a reset button you can use

Pushed the button and then tried to connect with Linksys Connect on my iPhone, it can not find router even though I can find it in wi-fi settings on iPhone.

Finally got it. Cisco recommended taking the router and plugging it directly into the computer with no internet connection, then I was able to enter its control panel. All good now. Then connected it back to my network and it works.

Thanks to all!
