@essbebe, Luckily the dialer connection was working. So, logged into hyd pc via teamviewer. and checked the IP Address. assigned.Note: Today i think my father got disconnected when the internet was on.

(as pointed out by armaan. One cannot connect to router page settings. if connected via bridgemode)What should be my next step.Should i ask my father to disconnect from the dailer and type 192.168.1.1 and check whether it opens the router page or not?
