linksys wireless router g issue?

well i have a linksys wireless g router and since my brother is the host computer he controls the linksys administration settings. So he cruelly blocked me from some of my gaming sites (I dont exactly how but i think he did it through the router) so now anytime i try to go to one of my gaming sites it won’t let me. I kno alittle about how the internet works and i know that the information being sent out is sent through packets. So im looking for a way to take off this restriction. Is there a way to access the admistration controls to the linksys router? should i reset the router so the default settings take effect? If anyone knows what I should do you can post whatever you know or email me at sticksnslats91@yahoo.com. Thanks

I would reset the router back to factory defaults, which would remove any administrator passwords he put on there and any restrictions on sites. On the back of the linksys router itself, there should be a really small button there, like you would need a pin to push and hold it in. If you push this button in for about 20 seconds, the lights on the router should either go off or start flashing. After that, it takes about a minute for the router to re establish a connection with your internet service provider. You can access the administrator controls by opening internet explorer and typing 192.168.1.1 into the address bar. The default password will be either admin (username) and admin (password), or admin for the password with the username left blank. There is an option under settings which will allow you to change the password. If your brother changed the login password or username, you might have no choice but to reset the router.
