I recently reset my wireless router cause i was having problems with the
internet. now the router is back to factory settings but its locked so i cant access it from my laptop because of this. when i type my IP into the address bar a login screen comes up but it wont let me use admin or my user login information. How do i get by this if it wont let me login? |

Suggest logging into the router from your desktop and configure it from
there. Presuming you are employing a wireless router and attempting to access it via the wireless link from your laptop. BTW would it be a Linksys product? 192.168.1.1?? Been there!!
