Routers Blocking Internet Site(s)

Ok, so I I have used 3 routers to test this problem(not all at the same time lol).
and it happens on ALL of them the 3 Routers Involved are.
Dlink DI-524 (H/W Ver :C1)
Linksys BEFW11S4 Ver.2
Belkin Model # F5D5231-4 Ver.1103

Computer Information
Operating system : Windows XP Home Edition 2002
service packs: SP 2
computer make/model : Dell Optiplex GX520
Intel Celeron CPU 2.66 GHz
current adware/spyware/virus programs being used on a REGULAR basis: Avast
do you have a "real" Windows CD, etc.: Yes I do

So here's the Issue. I know its some thing to do with the routers.
How do I know its the routers? There are 2 reasons that leave me
With this conclusion..

1) If I unplug them, And Plug my computer Directly into the Cable
modem, The Site loads perfectly. So we can rule out ISP. If it was
ISP, The Site would still be blocked.

2) After connecting the Router the site will load 1 time and then clicking
On any link will result in the page not found Error. If i enter the
Router settings, and do a Factory Reset, Im able to access the page
1 time before its blocked again.


Now... Iv tried turning off the Firewalls, Iv tried Removing any and all
Passwords and security. Its as open as the sky... But nothing works.
Some thing, some where in these routers is Blocking my connection to
the website, and in doing so blocking my connection to my email.

For example.
When I enter a cmd line and type "ping http://www.echothefaith.com" the
Following information is returned to me.

I can Ping it, I can load it without using the router, (or 1 time if i reset it) and it loads fine on NEIGHBORS pc... So, ruling out ISP, Ruling out the site has issues. im left with 3 routers that are telling me no. lol im in a boat with no paddle.


Why do my routers Hate Me
Congratulations, I've picked your post as worthy of a reply, lol. Okay seriously though lets get to business. First good job on having some good deduction skills. You can visit sites without the routers but you can't when you connect them between your modem & pc. You only mentioned one specific site having trouble but I am going to assume you have trouble visiting all sites from your first sentence.

Your problem seems to be an IP address issue. In the command prompt type the following without quotes: "ipconfig". Write down the ip address & subnet mask that you get. It should probably be something like 192.168.0.5 for ip & 255.255.255.0 for subnet. Do these look the same as the ip address you type to get to the router settings? Post back with your results of both your pc & router ips.

Another thing you may want to try is to connect one of the routers. Then from the command line of your pc type the following without quotes: "ipconfig /renew". This should give you a new ip address from the router that should be valid. Now visit the site and see if you can see it with no problems. Hi thanks for the quick reply..
Here is the info I think you asked for lol

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : Belkin
IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.100
Subnet Mask. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway. . . . . . . . . . . . .: 192.168.1.1

The Router Login would be http://192.168.2.1/

This is with my Belkin Router. I did Try doing the "ipconfig /renew" but it still displays a "problem loading page ' error. There's your problem dude. Your pc ip is not in the same subnet as your router. To put simply your pc ip is in one zip code and your router is in another zip code. Your pc is in subnet 192.168.1.0 and your router is in subnet 192.168.2.0. You either have to be in 1.0 or 2.0.

Go to control panel and then network connections. Right click your connection (something like LOCAL AREA NETWORK 1) & select properties. Then select tcp/ip (IPV4) and select properties. Does it have OBTAIN IP AUTOMATICALLY or does it have the ip typed in?ok confusion continues

Website is still blocked, and now im not even able to ping it..

Ping statistics for 75.126.65.69:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 0, Lost = 4 (100% loss),Did that solve your problem with the Belkin router? Also can you ping any site? Have you tried pinging google.com and get the same response? You didn't answer my question of whether or not you had "obtain ip automatically". At least now your ip is in the same subnet as your router. You only have 1 router hooked up right? You don't have 2 or 3 hooked up at the same time? This is really a very simple problem to fix. Unfortunately without being there and seeing how your network is physically set up it will take longer to figure out your issue. Is your modem also a router?
