Do a google search with the name and model of your router, and include the words 'hard reset'.

Unless the manufacturer has a backdoor into the router, you're not going to get in without resetting it. Sorry :)

Is that supposed to stand for EverQuest 2? No, I don't really play _any_ computer games (though I do have, and play, DDR2 MAX on the PS2). Must be a different Brazen, however I've been Brazen since 2000 here, and was Brazen other places even before this ;)

My Netgear has the means to export the configuration to a file. Could come in handy for you in the future. Import it, and you're back where you were.
