Hi everybody,

Recently, I got a Archer C5 router to use as a wifi switch. In setting it up, I disabled DHCP so that it would not interfere with the router on the network, effectively turning it into a switch with wifi capabilities. Now, I can't access the admin panel. The main reason that I want to access it is to be able to change the wifi password. I have tried resetting the router with no success - multiple times, in fact. I have internet access through it, but because I disabled DHCP, I can't access the admin panel. The wifi password that the paperwork says should work doesn't work. When I try accessing the admin panel, the web browser just times out = not able to connect. In the CMD prompt, I can't ping it either.

I've tried everything I know. If anybody has suggestions - I need them!!!

Thanks
