    What version do you have? It should say on the bottom of your router. (ver 1 or ver 2)
    Essentially what you need to do is connect via an ethernet cable, login to the router's web interface via default credentials and reset up the router.

    Are you able to see the wireless after you reset. It should be "Linksys" and unsecured?
