Here ya go:

To use the configuration utility embedded within your Motorola WiFi Router, you need to connect to it using the HTTP protocol. Launch a web browser (Internet Explorer, Opera, Firefox, or Netscape, etc.) on your computer, type in http://192.168.10.1 (default IP address for its LAN/NIC Interface) in its URL/Location bar, and then press Enter on your keyboard.

If presented with a user authentication (login) screen, try the following:
Default Motorola Wireless Router Username: admin (lowercase)
Default Motorola Wireless Router Password: motorola (lowercase)

If you cannot login using the above, it may be so because (a) you are not typing your password correctly, (b) your CAPSLOCK key is on, (c) someone has changed password on your wireless router, and/or (d) the firmware (a set of instructions stored on an EEPROM microchip) encoded within your wireless router is corrupted. Consider resetting your router to its factory default settings if you are stuck.
