yes look at the bottom picture type in your address bar just like that picture and you will get the top picture, enter the username and password and you will get the image at the bottom.

Entering 192.168.1.1 into your browser should enable you to get to the router configuration screens IF you have an Ethernet cable connected between the PC and the router. It won't display anything if it is not connected!

espresso is correct you need to have a connection to the router to be able to display its properties, go on the machine that is hard wired or with a working wireless connection to get to there.
