    router help!

    I'm running a wireless router that has been setup for years. I've always been able to connect to the router via 192.168.1.1 for ages, but haven't had a reason to log on in some time.

    Fast forward to now. I'm currently running new desktops with win 7 and laptop with win 7.

    Tried to connect wireless and direct cable connection to the router. Both times yield same results.

    Pop up for password comes up. enter info and it accepts loads page. But the page it loads is always just a blank screen. I cannot get any information to display after entering name/password.

    Tried turning off antivirus, IE protected mode. Can't figure it out. can anyone help? tips or tricks with current IE and/or Win7?

    The router should have a reset button on it. You will use a paper clip or something small. Turn the router off and hold the reset button in for a good minute... That should clear all and take you back to 192.168.1.1 .... You will then want to reset your wireless security.
