I have the same router and know the default is to have DHCP on and that the
address is 192.168.1.1 / subnet 255.255.255.0

That is the address that I use to access the admin features of the router.
Could it be that SuSE's DHCP is active and also assigning a conflicting
address out of range of the router subnet?

Just a thought.

I am able to access the router admin from a wireless connection, but
normally use my cable connected PC to make any changes.
