You don't need the CD that came with your router, but you will need to be able to access the router's setup pages. You use your Web browser (IE, Firefox, etc) to get at them, and will need to log in. You don't say which brand and model router you have, so I can't give you specific information. But you can visit the manufacturer's website, where you can often download the setup software that came on the CD, and they will have manuals and help available that can tell you the process. You can also look at this page, which lists the address and login information for most brands of router.

You can reset the device to the default factory settings by holding down the reset button for 7 seconds. The default password is blank.

I purchased my wireless G 2.4 GHz broadband router a few years ago, and would like to allow my guests to use my protected network; however I don't know my key. How do I find out what my key is so I can...

Hello ,
Its better you can get into your wifi setting by 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 and check whether the key is visible in characters, coz in most of the wifi setting it used to be in this type * . So if it appears like that you can dissable your security settings for sometime. And when you get into your wifi setting it may ask for your password , the default one is USER ID: admin Password: password or admin

I have a 21 letter/number password for my Linksys-G 2.4ghz router

Is there any computer online using the router.
If not then you will need to connect the computer to the router.
If yes then you can open the router set up page on that computer.
router set up page is the page where you can check all the router settings.

D-link DIR625 stopped working

Look in the documentation for instructions on defaulting the router to factory settings. Default the router and only plug in a wired connection and see if you have internet access. If you do setup your wireless and check for any problems. If you do all of this and it still doesn't work power the unit down and plug a cable in the WAN port and the other end in port 1. Boot the unit up and try again. If it still doesn't work it's time to replace

you must need to put in more than the ppoe connection type, there is the vpi =0, vci =38, then input your isp's username and password to get a connection.

 

All this must be done via the RJ45 cable and making sure that the pc's lan card is set to obtain an ip address automatically.

 

To get into the routers settings, type into your web browser either 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.0.100, as i'm not sure that actuall routers address, sometims it's on the underneath or refer to the manual.
