To prevent "drive-by" abuse of your router, you can only get to the
configuration page through a direct, wired connection.  The wireless
users cannot "administer" the router.  To alter any settings, you'll
have to plug in a Cat 5 cable, open a web browser, and then enter
http://192.168.0.1 - this should then request the login and the password
for access to the configuration page.

Let us know how it goes!
