Can't find my router please help(noob here)

[Kirile]

Hello Everyone,
.
I am having an issue finding my router. Usually my login up was 192.168.88.1 but yesterday, I’ve resetted the router and a new configuration for wifi pop out. I did type my password and login for 2.4 and 5 GHz networks and on the right side of the screen I typed in one blanked box the IP 192.168.88.1 and saved. Since then my PC IP is very strange (169. Something) and when I type 192.168.88.1 to log into the router Microsoft internet services appear??

I tried multiple times to hard reset it. Didn’ worked
Put it directly to the PC. Still can’t find it
I have no Ethernet nor wifi
It is broken? Should I buy a new one?
|Also i did install the beta or windows 10 if that matters|

Any help would be much appreciated, I am total noob in this !

Your PC having IP address 169.x.y.z indicates that PC somehow failed to configure IP address (and the rest of settings) using DHCP. You have 2 possibilities: set IP address on PC manually (use 192.168.x.y where x is same as your router’s third octet and y anything other than 1) … or use winbox (windows executable, get it from https://downoad.mikrotik.com, click winbox button in top section) and connect to router by using MAC address … this way IP addressing doesn’t matter.
