I'm using an Asus wireless router model RT-AC68U and can connect fine to the internet using it wirelessly. I configured the router to be an Access Point, but having done so, I can no longer locate the GUI to adjust the router as I have no idea what its IP Address is anymore. The router is plugged into a cable modem and router which is a model SMCD3G is a business class gateway labeled Comcast Business IP Gateway. This gateway is assigning ip addresses in the range 10.1.10.XX and I went to the web interface at 10.1.10.1 and listed the connected devices and see my laptop which is connected to the Asus access point along with a few other devices, but none of the devices listed are the Asus router (I tried all the six ip addresses listed).

If you needed a single tool to do this nmap/zenmap is a good option. You'll probably want to scan your entire ip address range, and this may take a while but once thats done. All the entries look similar - 192.168.1.1 is my main router, and 192.168.1.19 is the secondary router set as an AP. The MAC address should help work out which device specifically is the asus - It should start with AC: as with mine.
Assuming you can ping, I'd probably suggest doing a quick IP address scan, followed by either checking up all these IP addresses or doing an ARP scan. An arp scan alone is kind of useless when you have not actually made any connections to a device.
You can get a pretty similar result with an ip address scanner - angry address scanner is what seems to be recommended and the arp -a command. The ip address scan will ensure the ip address is known to the system as being in use, and the arp command will list the ip address and mac addresses

I know I'm resurecting an old, dead thread, but can't resist.

The output will look like this:
You may have multiple Interfaces listed, refer to the one that matches the computer's IP address.
In this example, my computer is 192.168.1.109.
I would want to try and connect to all other 192.168.x.x.
Since I know 192.168.1.1 is my router, I tried .107 and .255, and voila! .107 is the access point.
EDIT: Just an FYI but .255 can't be the access point anyway, since it's the broadcast address for that subnet. So by elimination, .107 is the access point.

This utility, supplied by Asus, tells you the hidden IP address. The link is from the RT-AC66U, but it might work for the 68 as well:

I'm installing not one but four of these, two primary and two repeaters. Another way to find the addresses if you're running Windows is to use the 'Device Discovery' utility ASUS provides at their support site. It more or less magically finds the device and provides a link to it.

I know this is a late response, but the quick and easy fix (after 2-3 hours of troubleshooting, trying to upgrade firmware, kicking myself, and drinking)

You may need to set your IP to that manually, but otherwise the router will then allow GUI access.
Enjoy! :)
