Most routers I have dealt with come with a preconfigured internal IP (usually 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1). Changing this is very specific to a given router/firmware, so we will not be able to help here unless you specify exactly what model/firmware you are running. > A supplementary question for any Italian speaker out there. > I moved to Italy about a month ago and I have an Alice 7 Mega account along > with a Telecom Italia Alice wifi-modem.

Alice wifi-modem doesn't say anything to me. More helpful would be to specify who built the modem and whatever other model number and revision is printed on it.
