If the router has already been configured to some other address and you don't
have it, then you'll have to depress the reset switch for about 3-4 seconds
minimum. This will reset EVERYTHING: passwords, routing, filters, forwarded
ports, etc.
Once you know the router's address, you must access it from one of the four lan
ports (not the wan port) using a browser from an address in the 192.168.1.x
space if you reset it, or within the configured subnet. [Speculation: I've
never used the DMZ host feature, so I'm not sure if that host address is
restricted from accessing the router; if so, you may need to try from a
different address if the DMZ feature is on.]
