Tomato problem

I flashed my dd-wrt Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 router to Tomato a couple of weeks ago, changed the default UN/PW, made ample note of it in my data but today when I try to access the admin screen I get this:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Authentication Required
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
? A username and password are being requested by http://192.168.1.1. The site says: "toast"

User Name: [__________________________________________________]

Password: [__________________________________________________]

[OK] [Cancel]

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


This accepts nothing, including what I have in my data for what I changed them to, nor the defaults admin/admin nor root/admin. What can I do? I'm trying to access from a wirelessly connected laptop. Maybe that's the problem. IIRC there's a setting in Tomato for access from ethernet connected devices only, guess I have to use my desktop. But why doesn't it just tell me that instead of not accepting my UN/PW? 😕
 
The default username (not changable) is admin (small letters). Your PW would be whatever you changed it to. If you absolutely can't get it, you would need to hold down the reset button for 30 seconds to reset back to default (admin/admin as well as 192.168.1.1 for the IP) and set all of your settings back up.

I'm not sure if wireless administration is enabled by default or not.

I'm almost positive it's disabled by default and that I didn't change it. Good to know a simple reset will reset the password to default, I can deal with that. But I think accessing from my ethernet connected desktop will work, I haven't tried it yet.
