Default Router help needed

I have a Cisco Linksys ea4500 router but I don't remember how to access it on my computer. I did it one time and was able to get my user password and that is what I need now to set up a new smart TV.
I am running windows 7 home premium edition. I think I had XP when I last accessed the router.

looks like you'll need the setup CD or download the setup per their doc.

I have the setup CD but can't get it to run. It won't run automatically and I've done all the clicking here and there but it still won't run!

I used your link and found out that I need my account password to access my router. I can't remember it either! When I hit the forgot password link I get an e-mail directing me back to the log-in page!
Let's say I am computer challenged and leave it at that!

If you hold down the reset button on the router for 10 seconds it should reset to the default login of admin and password of admin

I used my laptop tonight and all I had to do was open the internet access, right click on my connection and open the properties tab. It showed my password. I knew I had done it in the past just forgot which computer!
Anyway, thanks for the help.
