Access the setup page of router by typing 192.168.1.1 in the address bar.
By default, leave the username blank and the password is admin.
Once on the setup page, go to Wireless. Under Basic Wireless settings, change the default SSID Linksys into any name. This will allow you to easily determine which is your wireless network.
Then go to Wireless Security and enable WEP. Type a passphase and click the generate button. Take note of the Network key. Remember that you will use this network key to all wireless computers.
On your wireless computer, view the available wireless networks or site survey. Select your SSID and enter the network key to connect.
I hope this helps!

Sounds like the battery that backs up this router's "firmware" and "programmable" memory settings may be going bad. Then again, it may not have a battery that does this. Perhaps the little reset button on the back is jammed in?
