It says something like "BTC-ADSL". | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core Processor 5600+ OS Windows 7 Ultimate x32 CPU Dual Core Processor 2.90Ghz Memory 4GB DDR2 RAM Graphics Card ATI Radeon Series HD 4800 Series Sound Card AMD High Definition Audio Device Screen Resolution 1440x900 Keyboard Standard PS/2 Keyboard Mouse Logitech HID-compliant Mouse Hard Drives Hitachi 298GB Internet Speed 1.300MBps (TRANSFER rate), 70 to 80KBps upload speed.

Unfortunately, that not enough information.
Open a browser and type 192.168.1.1.......does it open anything? If not, try some of these:
If that still doesn't help, try this:
1. Click Start 
2. In the search box, type cmd
3. In the list that appears, right-click on cmd.exe and choose Run as administrator
4. In the command window that opens, type ipconfig and hit enter.
The routers IP address will be shown next to Default Gateway, like this: | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop System Manufacturer/Model Number Golden Mk.

When I enter the details for the username and password, it just never stops loading when I press enter. That's why I made this thread. I waited for 5 minutes and it was still loading.
