Well I'm in my new home now and been relaxing for about an hour. Got into Pitt about 12 hours ago and went non-stop getting everything taken care of. I don't have internet hooked up yet, they are suppose to do it end of this week, beginning of next. But for now I am picking up someone else's wireless signal :) So I will check in as I can. Take care everyone.

I'm at work right now so I can't get into it, but in the meantime you can open internet explorer then type 192.168.1.1 into the address bar...this will let you into the router. The username is: (admin) and the password is usually left blank but if not it is: (admin) also. At that point you need to verify that it is V.4 or lower. If it is newer than V.4 (version 4) then it's no longer Linux based open source code and I don't have a hack for it. However if it is an older you can do it...BUT...there is some risk involved so you might want to weigh your pros and cons. You typically don't want to alter the configuration on a router via wireless. It is best to be done while hard wired into it, but it still can be done. The risk of doing it wireless is that if something causes an interruption while your updating the router you can brick the router (lock it up) and then you're bascially screwed and so is the owner of the router that you're hacking. What type of signal are you currently getting? What is the through put off of that signal?

Well I'd rather not screw someone else over, since I would hate for someone to do it to me.
