26. don't type it into google search, type it into the address bar directly

try http://192.168.0.1/

Like literally clicking that link that I just gave you should likely work.

It's not a private account, it's a generic address used by routers in a network. That's why I can tell you what the address is likely to be.

But you can search 'what is my routers ip address' and then put the model number from the router. You find it's likely either what I said, or the first 0 is a 1. http://192.168.1.1/

802.11ac is the 'type' of router, more or less it's the 'speed' of it. That is not of use in this equation.

You will looking for something as ZZ said, 192.168.X.X.

You aren't in a 'private' scenario til you log into the routers admin. When you hit the proper IP, you're visiting a web page served by the router itself. Think of it like going to democraticunderground.com when you're not logged in. But you don't use a 'name' you use an IP address cause you're just visiting a 'site' on your own home network. That site ... contains your routers admin tools. Set up to look/work like a simple, regular HTML website.

Edit: I see Cayuga looked up your router model ... use the IP s/he gave you: http://10.0.0.1/ (should work with or without the http:// part, but doesn't hurt)
