BELKIN PRE-N ROUTER: How to switch from accesspoint mode to normal mode

[pantellica]

I'm Belkin's new costumer, and i've just purchased a Belkin Wireless Pre-N Router F5D8230-4.

I hadn't connected to the internet yet, but I still installed the router using Easy Install Wizard. Then I had a good wireless network which could connect all 5 of our computers together.Next I accessed to the advanced user interface using my browser by typing 192.168.2.1

There I made a mistake by changing to the Access Point Mode and set the IP to 192.168.2.254 and the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0 (REALLY I don't understand anything about Access Point Mode)
Then my network didn't work until I stop using automatically obtaining IP address and set a static IP 192.168.2.27 and Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 (but i didn't specify DNS server or default gateway).
But I still couldn't access the router user interface in my browser, even when i typed 192.168.2.1 or 192.168.2.254 (and i tried set my ip to exactly 192.168.2.254 but it still didn't work).

Tell me how to access the user interface again.
OR TELL ME HOW TO GIVE UP THE ACCESS POINT MODE AND RETURN TO NORMAL MODE

Personally I would suggest resetting the router to factory defaults by using the reset button then start over, this time do not use the Easy Install Wizard, simply log into the router and set it all up.

In the web admin, over on the left side under the wireless heading....lets you flip between router/NAT mode, and WAP mode.
You'll also see on the bottom left of the web admin a "reset to factory default" link you can click on.

For both of those, you'll need to know the admin password....by default was left blank.

I might be wrong but I dont believe the address 192.168.2.254 valid with that subnet try 192.168.2.245.

Just somthing that sticks in the back of my head.

Thank you for helping me.
I reset the router and now it works well.
But resetting is not quite easy
