Lost my router password

The other day while I was bored I got on my router settings (Westell A90-750045-07) and changed my password to go to the settings. But now it won't work, I'm not even sure if I remember correctly. I thought I set to my last name and my little brother's first name. And I really need to get on it to set up a Minecraft Server. HELP!

Do a hard restart by using a pencil on a small button on the back of the router,you will need to hold the button for about 7 seconds,this will reset the router back to default.

This is not what is normally called your router password.

The default security required to connect wireless is usually WEP security.  The newer routers set WPA2 as default, and it is actually recommended that you switch to WPA2 if possible.

The default WEP or the default WPA2 passkey or passphrase is listed on a sticker on your router.  You can also see the current values by logging on to your router and looking at wireless settings (wireless settings advanced settings and click on WPA2 for WPA2).  Recent FIOS TV IMG menu item also displays these settings.
