Major problems setting up a WRT54G as it keeps asking me for a Passphrase i do not know...

During the course of setting up a WRT54G, it is now asking me for a Passphrase before it will connect wireless to my notebook....  In other words, my notebook detected it and wants a Passphrase to allow the connection. It is like 16 characters long... I have no idea of what it could be. Is there any way to reset everything and start from scratch.
Also.... the pack in CD refused to reconize my two different computers Internet configurations.... One has XP, the other has Vista.
There is also a password box (which i never set a password to) poping up when i try to got to http://192.168.1.1

Well, I have a couple of suggestions for solving your password issue:
A)with out reseting
1) if you have an ethernet cable connected to you nic in your laptop,
2) type in your router address in your window
3) login as the user:admin, password; admin to your router
4) go to wireless security pick a pass phrase you want to use as your encrypted code that you will use for your laptops wireless connection, click generate.(You should get 4 varaitions of it use one, make sure you pick 64 bit or 128 bit encryption most likely the 128.CTRL-C the chosen encryption.
5) Reconnect wirelessly to your router, Ctrl-v in the passphrase box and login.
B)If nothin of that works reset your router and follow the steps again.
