I give you credit for you last sentance, at least one computer in you lan has to be hard wired into the router to be able to access the router configuration page.  I think you were the only one to have mentioned that in all the replies I read. So, three cheers for you Karl. That was nice work on your part.  Have a great day.  BTW, I was sure to check out your comment before I reset the router.  The url works still using static IP's and without reseting the router.  All I had to do after moving the machine to the router room was disable the wifi card and boot with the NIC card activated.
