gerdy, Please change your subject heading. "gerdy" is not telling anyone anything about your problem.

You can reset your router to factory default by using the "Default" switch. Its usually present on all the routers. Push it with pencil tip for about 10 seconds. Your router would reboot into factory settings. You can then log in with default username & password.

I heard that there was away to plug in a switch in the same room where the computer that has the router is and then plug in a second switch in the room where the second computer is without actualy having to lay any wires. I would like to use the internet from the computer that has the router on my second computer that is in the room upstairs. The first computer has DSL. I tried to see if I could get internet service from the computer downstairs when I bought the new computer but it could not find any signal. My Son-in-Law uses his laptop and he is able to get the signal in the kitchen so what am I doing wrong:confused? Any help would be appreciated.

Waht type of wireless adapter are you talking about since I really don't know what kind to get. After I install it would it not ask me the password and or the key for the router from the other computer downstairs? Unfortunatly I don't remember either one. Thanks for all your help.
