Question : Problem: forgotten password for wireless router

I have had this lynksis router for a few years and just got it out to use today but can't remember the security password that must have been created for the original use.  I think the program assigned the "key".  Is there anyway I can reset this without the software?

Answer : Problem: forgotten password for wireless router

are you connected to the router with a wire (ethernet)
press the start button
press "run"
type in "CMD" and then press enter.
wait for the black windows to appear.
in the black window type in "IPCONFIG" press enter
note down the default gateway  (some thing like 192.168.1.1)

open the internet explorer (big blule e)
in the address bar type in "http://192.168.1.1   (or whatever the address is)

you should now be able to log in.
