Topic: Installed OpenWRT, set IP, restrated, lost my router! help!

So I installed the latest openwrt.  I then connected to the router and set the ip (or so I thought).  I did a restart and now it's gone.  I can't find it on the old or new ip.  Pressing the reset button doens't seem to do anything.  Sniffing the network finds nothing useful.  Please assist.

holding down the reset button on power on till the leds flash should bring it into failsafe mode, depending on the router of course.

Before trying that look up your router on the wiki to find out how to bring it into failsafe mode under Kamikaze, also some details might help people on these forums, I'm no expert sorry.
