How do I reset the passwork for my wireless internet router?

I was drunk when I set it up and now I can't have other computers get the wireless signal because I forgot my password.

    Depending on the router you have it'll be different:

    a) Find your router and look around it for a reset button (should be small, and you might need a pencil to poke it).

    b) Hold the reset button for 30-35 seconds (this will reset the router to how it was when you bought it).

    c) Now type in the ip of your router into your internet browser. It can be lots of things depending on the brand. Linksys is always http://192.168.1.1/ and Dlink routers are http://192.168.0.1/

    d) Type in Admin as the username, and leave the password blank.

    e) Now you can actually access the router and change the password.

    Hope that helped.
