Standard local IP for routers is http://192.168.1.1/ (not 0.1), unless D-Link is doing something oddball.
Perhaps try with different browsers. I had one d-link that I had to use internet explorer for.
I never use the install CD -- I just log into the device directly and manage it using the built-in browser interface.
Hope that helps.
The 30-30-30 Hard Reset method will sometimes even bring back a bricked router to factory settings. Try it, you can’t hurt the device is it won’t start already.
Your best off to rest the router and start with a clean slate: https://www.verizon.com/support/residential/internet/fiosinternet/networking/troubleshooting/dlink624/130271.htm
See if you can find any you tube videos on the issue or do a topic search through Google, Bing or whatever.
Forget the cd
go to the dlink website look up the router and find out how to do a hard reset.. (probably holding them reset button while you do a power cycle of the box or something similar)
then just going through the local ip to the router local web page
just remember you have a router that you don’t know the status of for all you know the reason they got rid of it is broke..... someone did a firmware upgrade and blew it or something
That device has a factory reset button on the back that you can press with the aid of a paper clip. If it can reset, that would provide some confidence it is functional and would remove any oddities from previous uses that might make it behave badly.
Here’s an idea for less than $25 bucks. One for sale on Ebay.

Also have you tried both a computer and router reboot with all the cables connected? Try it with the ethernet cable attached instead of wifi to start the process.
I highly recommend you consider a newer router. The one you have uses WPA TKIP. WPA2 AES is the better option. Further, the 802.11N is a far superior protocol and if you have the capability, 802.11AC is even better than that.
Check and see what IP address is set for your Modem. It’s probably the same address.
If your router is wireless and you’re trying to hook it up to your modem and the wireless router uses the same IP - things don’t work.
There should be a setup routine for the wireless that allows you to change it. That was the problem for mine.
I think I ended up setting it to 192.168.2.1
At the price of them these days....dump it an buy new. You can get a gigabit router with AC wireless for under $79.
Dlink routers are cheap and very poor quality. I’d go to the store and buy a Linksys for $50 or so and toss the Dlink.
Reset your router to factory default. Router should then be automatically configured with 192.168.1.1. Use an ethernet cable and hard wire your computer directly to the router (don’t plug in to the uplink port on the router). Manually configure the computer IP address (on the wired interface) to 192.168.1.2. After both IPs are set, go to a command prompt (if using a PC) and type “ping 192.168.1.1” (leave out the quote marks). If you get a reply,both devices are successfully located on the same subnet. Then, open a web browser and navigate to 192.168.1.1. You can then configure the device as you see fit.
I believe that model is 802.11G. You’d likely be happier with an 802.11N or 802.11AC but it’s easy for me to spend your money. Good luck.
Don’t waste your time with some old cheapo router. Get something decent, configure it once, and forget about it.
