If its not one thing its another.
I changed the master computer. I have a netgear wireless router. I used to type 198.162.1.1 into the browser to access the router. I did not have a sign on name or password. It was easy. I put in the new computer, now it asks me for a sign on name and password. I try all that I can find, including ones that are listed in my master record as such, and it refuses to let me in. Is there a place the information might be stored?
Can I do a full reset on the router using the button provided on the router case (Reset factory defaults), will that cancel all passwords etc and let me start again? I don't want to try it in case I lose the router altogether, but it might be my only option.
