    Can anyone walk me through setting up my wireless router.. I accidently reset the settings and I don't know how to set it up so that it requires a password to obtain my signal.

    Ok well I didnt accidently reset it.. i forgot my password to link my iTouch to my wireless signal and now i need to reset the whole system so that my neighbors can steal my wire less...

    Not much yet, got a pretty good sound system w/ my custom sub box. Plan on adding more lights & a tool box.
    Use the hose & connect wired, then fire up the software for it & use the Lizard (wizard). It should step you thru the process.

    try going to the command prompt and typing in "ipconfig /all" find the numbers (ip address) after the "default gateway". Once you have those, type them into the address bar in your browser. it should take you to the set up screen.

    after that just set up wep, static ip and mac filtering and you are good to go.

    what type of encryption is your router capable of? WPA? WEP? just set up a password utilizing one of the methods provided. If you already did that, usually unplugging both the router and modem for 10 secs will help them sync and will usually get it working.
