Default Linksys Router reset?

I have a linksys router and I can't remember the username/password and I need to mess around with the settings. Is there a way to get back into it? The default admin/admin isn't working either. Can anyone help me?

There should be a tiny reset button somewhere on the back. If you hold it down for 30 seconds, it should reset to the factory settings. At that point the default login info should work.

Make sure you're constantly holding down the reset like what Pete said

Can you turn NAT to Open or is it hardware that does it?
