You are not alone. I too have difficulty to access my router's web configuration page. When i tried to access the web configuration page, my internet connection will die off and i had no choice but to power off my modem for a period of time. I guess this is due to Vista's new TCP/IP stack. Well, i have no idea about it. But, why don't you take a connection evaluation test
here to check whether your router/modem complies with the Vista's specified standards. Post the result of the evaluation test here if you can.
By the way, i am using D-Link DI-634M. How about you?
Is the router/AP's SSID broadcasting turned on? If not, try enabling SSID broadcast via the router/AP's web configuration page.
I am using Dlink DSL-500Tv2, these are my results for the test
