Hi Samsungvt!

You will have to access the Web Interface of the Paradyne Router to reset it to Factory Defaults.

First, connect your PC to the Paradyne Router. Check your IP address is in the range 192.168.1.xx (xx = any number from 1-254). Open your web browser, type 192.168.1.1 then press enter. Enter the default username and password (shown below) to access the router's web interface. On the left pane, click Erase and Reboot; this will reset the router to factory default.

Default IP address is 192.168.1.1
Default Username and Password: root

Let me know if there's anything else...

You just need to press RESET button on the back of the router. THis will reset router back to factory settings. then open internet explorer and type in address 192.168.1.1 - press enter key. THis will bring up the login screen for router
Default login and pw are
Login: admin (or maybe Admin)
Pw: admin (or maybe Admin, or blank)
Login and setup router

you have forgotten your LinkSys router password, the easiest thing to do is to reset your router to the factory default settings.
To restore the router configuration to factory defaults, hold the reset button on the unit for 30 seconds.
Once your router is hard reset, you will need to login and reconfigure it again.
To reconfigure your LinkSys, connect a PC to one of it's Ethernet ports, load a web browser, and go to the URL http://192.168.1.1/. This will take you to a popup box which asks you to enter a username and password to login to your router Password: Admin
On older LinkSys routers, the default username is blank and the default password is "admin." On newer Linksys routers, both the default username and the default password are set to "admin."
Once you are past the login screen, you are able to reconfigure the LinkSys router

If the address you mention is correct, try reseting the router first, (normally a little hole at back), then typing in again, although most routers have a 192.168.x.x reference and not 198.168.x.x as you mention.
