Linksys Access point

Press and hold the reset button of the Linksys router using a pointed object (like a paper clip or pen) for 30 seconds.

The reset button is located in the back of the Linksys router closest to an Ethernet port.

The button is recessed to protect you from accidentally resetting the modem.

Unplug the Linksys router while pressing the reset button.

Shut down your computer for one minute.

Plug the Linksys router back into the wall outlet.

Reboot your computer.

Open your web browser to access a website.

Type the below in the address bar if you want to reset your password:

http://192.168.1.1

A prompt from the site will request a user name and password.

The user name stays blank, or, in some models, is "admin".

Navigate to the security tab. Input your new password to protect unauthorized access to your router

hope this helps

Are those 4 ports in different Vlan ?
If you connect your wireless access point to the 1st port are you able to access the internet through 2nd port or 3rd port ?
Are the ports 1-4 admin down ?

If you are not administration the router than you have to ask your network admin for the password. Else open your browser and type 192.168.1.1 in the add bar and hit enter. System will ask you to type in the user name and password to access the web interface. So username and password are "admin" by default. Once you have entered the username and the password, you will see the web interface. Select "Wireless" option and then selece "Wireless Security" and then you will see the password.

Assuming "cannot connect to linksys router directly" means you cannot connect to a Wireless Lan managed by Linksys router,
1) try to connect new computer to LinkSys Router using a Lan cable, add new PC to your network.
2) recover protocol (WEP or WPA) and Key of WLAN (Passphrase or Key: TKIP or AES) either from other PC on same network either from your Router.
3) If you missed actual key you must connect to router and reset it to a new key to be eventually used for every connected device.
Call for detail on this possibility

try typing 192.168.1.1 in your internet browser..the login and password are usually admin  and admin respectively.you can then configure further settings without using any cd etc.hope it helps!
