I think you can do this through the router settings. Since you have it encrypted, I'm assuming you know how to get to it.

If you don't, it's as simple as typing it IP address into a browser window (IE, firefox etc).

If you need more help, please post back with the make and model of your router.

Hope this helps

there is no ip on the router but the serial is (kld00f109771) model number is(wrt54gx4) mac address is(001310-cab3817)

**Jack.Sparrow** · 10-03-2007, 07:58 PM

The ip won't be on the router, but every router has an ip.

What's the make/model of your router?

gamer101 · 10-03-2007, 08:18 PM

model is wrt54gx4 make linksys wireless-g broadband router with srx400

**Jack.Sparrow** · 10-03-2007, 08:24 PM

Type 192.168.1.1 into your browser (into the address bar). That is it's default IP. You should be able to change the settings there.

it says i need to login what do i use to login with

**Jack.Sparrow** · 10-03-2007, 08:27 PM

If you haven't set any username or password, just leave it blank

gamer101 · 10-03-2007, 08:29 PM

it wont let me through still

**Jack.Sparrow** · 10-03-2007, 08:31 PM

My bad, try

Username - leave it blank
Password - admin

gamer101 · 10-03-2007, 08:31 PM

still nothing

**Jack.Sparrow** · 10-03-2007, 08:35 PM

That's weird. Did you ever change/set a username or password?

Try that the other way round too, username - admin password - leave it blank

gamer101 · 10-03-2007, 08:36 PM

tried still nothing is there away around it

**Jack.Sparrow** · 10-03-2007, 08:38 PM

None that I know, but even if there is one, TSF rules dictate we can't tell you, sorry.

Hang around until someone who knows this router comes along, cause I'm out of ideas.

Thanxs For The Help But It Is For My Psp Because I Cant Access It When The Encryption Is On

**Jack.Sparrow** · 10-03-2007, 08:46 PM

I think if you update it's fireware (to 2.0 atleast) you should be able to do it.

**johnwill** · 10-04-2007, 11:53 AM

Reset the router to factory defaults by holding the reset key for 15 seconds with power on. Then you'll be able to use the default IP address and password as described previously. Also, the wireless will default to no encryption, so you're all set.
