• Answer:

  Dude I'm exhausted reading all that. I'm not sure what is doing what to what in your explanation. You didn't provide any specifics (type of router, operating system, etc) so it's really impossible to give you step by step instructions. Just reset the router and start over. There's a little button on the router somewhere that will reset it to factory defaults. After that just follow the instructions.
