Solve : I broke my wireless router... Again.?

Answer»

This is possibly the 3RD time that I have created a very complicated and messy situation...

It's also my third time asking for help from this website and you haven't failed me yet so...

Well... How should I explain this...

I bought a Belkin G Wireless router.

(It didn't have an antenna though...)

I connected it to my computer and stuff and it worked. I could play on my nintendo DS with wifi now.

But the next day, I got this error when I tried to CONNECT with others.
Error Code 86420


So I looked it up and it told me to update firmware.

I updated my firmware but I still got the same problem so I looked around my router settings software. Than I saw a certain setting that said like bypass firewall. I can't REALLY remember much else but for some reason, I thought that would help. So I pressed a button and it said something else... Now my router isn't connected to the internet and I can't access the router setting software... I need to find a way to access it so I can reset the router.

I'm not exactly sure what I did but this is the best computer help website I know so... I ask for help.

If worse comes to worse, I have a 1 year WARRANTY...is there a reset button on the router? My router I use has a reset button to reset all the settings back to factory preset so that I can redo the customized settings that would let me get on the internet properly.:O

It worked! Thanks much. Much less complicated fix than my last 2 problems :>great
