A "Hard Reset" on a wireless router on DD-WRT means you just cleared 
your NVRAM settings. Not what is flashed to the CMOS, but what 
configurations persist on reboot, IE your settings and IP's and 
everything, which is then set back to default, usually 192.168.100.1 or 
some such setup. You need to make sure you are wired directly to the 
router and you will need to change your IP to match the default of the 
router if you have customized it.
