Hi, I forgot my user name and password on routerlogin.net, I wanted to set up my laptop to go wireless..
Is there anyway I can do a hard reset? or can i still set it up.. I still have all the WEP/WPA key if that helps..

What happens if you enter your security key on the laptop when asked to do so by the wireless device?0

are the defaults.
unless you have setup mac address filtering, you just need to tell your new laptop what the wpa/wep key is, so don't need to attach to the router config screen
if you are not sure what the wpa/wek key is, run this on the working laptop

failing that, you will have to reset the router to defaults, by pressing the reset button at the back, but this will lose all the configuration.Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:0
