Yeah, admin password and wifi key should be the same and on the sticker

yes but i must have changed it. it does not work. i may have changed the username alone. isn't the key the same key you would use to connect a new device to the lan, the network seurity key?
i can connect a tablet to the network with the network seurity key so must have changed the router username only

There's a reset button that may do a factory restore, you need a paperclip etc to push it

i know that but i will lose changes i made. if i changed the username is it not saved somewhere?

It surely is. What changes are you concerned about?

It should be on the device itself but you can lift it from a Windows PC. Open Network and Sharing Centre, click the connection on the right. Click the Wireless Properties button and go to the Security tab. There should be a Show Characters box there which will display the key.

Try all your different browsers on different devices, one of them may have saved it. Failing that you may have to reset if you can't guess it.

Isn't that just the WiFi key? The the OP needs the router login key

They're the same by default on the f2000 IIRC.

Yes but they're the same on the F2000. If anything's been changed and forgotten then a hard reset is probably the only way.
