My IP addresses changed from 192.168.2.xxx to 192.168.1.xxx. I can't reach the switch anymore

My connection is now on fiber and since that was realized, all my IP addresses shifted from 192.168.1.xxx to 192.168.2.xxx.

I have tried to revert them back to 192.168.1.xxx, but without luck. Now for most part this is not a problem. I just had to configure a lot of stuff with the new address and that seems to work just fine now. But I do have a problem with reaching my VSeven MPEG24 switch which has a default address of 192.168.1.1 which is in another subnet. I have no clue how to solve that. I've tried hard resetting the switch, but I can't connect to it anymore.


Solution 1:

Temporarily change one of your computers' IP address to be in the 192.168.1.0/24 range and you should be able to connect to your switch (you will be disconnected from the Internet). Then just configure your switch's IP to be in the 192.168.2.0/24 network and switch back your computer's IP address to whatever it was.
