Re: wireless router help
You can always reset the router to factor settings. There should be a button on the back. Then you can google for the default password, and set it up from there.

just reset the router and start fresh.
**Disclaimer** Maybe wait for the experts to weigh in b/c I am by no means one of them. |

It sounds like there is a network security/encryption key he needs to be reset. Two ways to approach this. The quickest way to get online: Reset the router to factory defaults and lose the secure network, press and hold the reset button for at least 10 seconds. This should open up the router for your laptop's access but your network will be unsecured and anyone can jump on and use your internet. The better way is sign-on as admin and set a new network security key. Download your manual for instructions. |
