how do you check if your firewall is blocking the router?

You still haven't said if you can ping the IP.

From the command prompt, simply type
ping 10.0.0.2

If you don't get a response, installing another browser won't make a lick of difference (unless of course ping responses are disabled on the router, in which case you'd have to install telnet and connect to port 80 to test, but that's a whole 'nother kettle of fish)
