All manuals for routers are free
all manuals are on line, all are. for sure under 10 years old or even older most.
yours is 2005 made a real relic now. 13 years old for you
and now 17 years old.
no 2 routers work the same why (settings or features all)
you did the long reset (at button) so the router is now back to day1, new in the box state
so only cure is the manual
now I will google it for you, 10 sec work
the manual is at MSI.com but is slow to navigate there,so I am lazy here is the echo of it, 182 pages deep., shocking yes but routing is complex. but basic setup is not hard.

Generally you do not install a router onto a PC you connect to a router with a wire using a network adapter or wirelessly with a wireless adapter. Can you any of the following you have identify you make and model of PC, make and model of add-on adapter card? Then I may be able to assist you in determining if a driver exists for the device attached to your computer intended to communicate with the identified router.
Thanks

Hi, I will lend a hand if I can.
There are four basic steps to set up wireless security:
1) Login to your router
2) Change the router login password/username
3) Change the network name, or SSID
4) Enable WPA encryption
As you only want encryption, I will go straight to step 4. The following is based on the manual for the MSI RG54G3.
Here are the details:
1. Login to your router.
2. Go to Setup> Wireless.
3. Select WPA-PSK - strictly speaking the correct option depends on your wireless adapter. However, this is usually a good choice to start with. You may see one or more new options pop up. Select ASCII if necessary.
4. Under ‘Pre-Share Key’ you should enter a long password, or passphrase, between 8 and 63 letters/numbers long. This can be any series of letters/ numbers, or you can use a phrase with numbers ( eg - 456HappynEWYeartoyou8899). It is case sensitive.
5. Note down the ‘Pre-share key’, also called the network key, carefully. You will need this to connect wirelessly. (The network key may also be called a WPA shared key, PSK, pre-shared key, passphrase, authentication key). Click ‘Save’ when finished.
When you next attempt to connect wirelessly, you are asked for the network key you've just set up. If all goes well, you can then save this and will connect automatically in future.
Hope this helps, but if it is not clear or doesn't work, please come back to Fixya. Good luck.
