HELP please

I just had to re-format my PC and now my router won't let me log on to it's page, I tried the default password/username nothing, tried the one I was using prior to reformat and it still won't work...
I am using the NETGEAR DG834PN router..
As you can see accessing the internet isn't a problem though.  Huh
Thanks if anyone can help.

Hi
The router password and so on is stored on the router itself, so reformatting your hard drive wouldn't change it.

- Sounds like you are getting the right IP as you wouldn't be prompted for the username/password otherwise. As you can't get on with the details you thought it needed, I believe the default un/pw on a netgear is admin/password, no luck getting in with these details either?
