Hello,

I was trying to set my password on linksys via http://192.168.1.1 and at the WPA Shared key password my connection dropped. Now when I try to log on to my wireless network i don't have a password that works. So i can't connect with my router. I'm connected now but not through the wireless router and therefore can't get back to http://192.168.1.1. How do I reset my password to get on the internet with the router? I tried resetting the router and it doesn't work. Please help! I just want to be able to use my router without everyone else in my building using it to! Thank you!

Configuration: Mac OS X
Safari 531.9

You need to connect to the router using a Ethernet cable to your Mac before you change the password.
Then type http://192.168.1.1/ into the browser address area. That gets you into the router set-up . Then you need to enter a name (SSID) and encryption type (WEP, WPA) and a password. The full set of instructions should be on the Linksys site.

Thanks for the quick response, but I can't connect to the internet if i'm connected to the router. My mac asks for a password now that doesn't work. So then I can't get to the linksys page.
other ideas?
