    Ive got Netgear router WGR614, I need to go into my settings so I can link my psp wirelessly and unfortunately I cant get into it whatsoever. Comes up username and password, Ive tried the default ones and nothing, Ive even tried my usual usernames and passwords and nothing.
    Is there a way of resetting the router to default and get the default username and password back?
    Any help would be grateful as this is getting very annoying lol

    There should be a reset button in the back of the router. You will probably need a paper clip to reset it. Hold it down for about 10 to 15 seconds to reset.

    Once reset just enter default password and you should be good.

    Tried it, same problem, is there an amount of time that I have to have the router switched off for?

    I dont know what you mean by that but, make sure your router is on when you push the reset button. try holding the reset button for 30 seconds, you should see the lights flash to let you know it reset.

    Feel free to ask away if you run into problems but this should work.
