You put the router IP in your browser address bar. Linksys is usually 192.168.1.1. the user name and password by default is admin and admin. If someone happened to change it or this IP doesnt work, unplug the router and push the reset button on the rear. This will reset the router to factory. You will also need to reset the security on it after you do this.

On older LinkSys routers, the default username is blank and the default password is "admin." On newer Linksys routers, both the default username and the default password are set to "admin."
Once you are past the login screen, you are able to reconfigure the LinkSys router.
To restore the router configuration to factory defaults, hold the reset button on the unit for 30 seconds.
Once your router is hard reset, you will need to login 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 the URL http://192.168.1.1/ This will take you to a popup box which asks you to enter a username and password to login to your router.

all routers have a little hole, which is the reset button, find a pin and reset it
it should go back to factory default settings,
the address should be 192.168.0.1 or .1.1
username: admin
password: password.
