Help! Cannot login to router...

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.security_admin (More info?)

Can someone please tell me why I cannot login to reconfigure my router
settings. I go to 192.168.1.1 in my browser, and it gives me a little pop up
screen to enter my user name and password. I do so, but it will still not
allow access. I have changed my username, and password, to make sure, but it
will not accept the new logins either. What am I doing wrong? Thanks so much.

Thanks, but I've tried all of that and it still will not let me login. It's
not the router, but rather windows that isn't happy with my username and
password. Even after changing them, it still will not let me in.

This has nothing to do with windows.

Contact the company that makes the router if you're still having trouble.

I think the problem is in your router configuration. May I know what your
router is
