Reset your router back to it's factory settings by holding the reset button for about 5 seconds.
I have provided a list of the most popular router brands. If it does not work you may need to
google what your specific model's default IP address/default username/default passwords are, for
example search for "Encore ENHWI-2AN3 default IP address" The default login info can change, it
can depend on where you obtained your router. If you purchased it yourself from a store then the
standard defaults should work. If you obtained your router from your Internet Provider you may
need to contact your service provider. It also may depend whether it's an old or new model router
as well. And you may need to press and hold the reset button on your router several times before
it actually clears. Make sure you have a wired connection then once you have accessed your router simply run the Setup Wizard. Set your SSID as something you'll remember like "Mavericks Network" and your Password can be something like your phone number for example 3109876543

If you have forgotten your Linksys router password, the easiestthing to do is to reset your router to the factory default settings. To restore therouter configuration to factory defaults, hold the reset button on the unit for30 seconds.
Once your router is hard reset, you will need tologin 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 theURL http://192.168.1.1/. This will take youto a popup box which asks you to enter a username and password to login to yourrouter.

After changing the administrator password then you will need to enable WEP or WAP security so your nosy neighbors aren't tapping into your wireless network. I am picking up 4 networks with my pc antenna.
