Please help with non-technical info!

Thanks.
If you just seth the WEP/WPA password, then you can follow the instructions whydoineedatech gave.


If you also reset the administrator password, then you'll need to do a factory reset (which will return all options to their defaults).

It's worth noting that if anyone publishes details of how to retrieve your password, then it would be against forum rules, and would also allow any random hacker who happens to be passing your way (and it *does* happen) access to your network.
