Open your browser and type the router's IP address into the address field. The most common IP for Synology routers is: 192.168.1.1 If that IP address doesn't work, you can search the default Synology IP address list for your specific model.

What if my Synology router or network stops working after a configuration change
In case you by mistake make some change that breaks your Synology home network, you can always go back to zero by following the generic 30 30 30 hard reset trick.
This is usually the last resort, and if you still have access to the Synology interface you can always login to try and revert the settings first (This of course assumes you wrote down the original value before changing it).
