Have you tried just pulling the power from it and rebooting, cos normally if you make changes but do not save them, then a cold boot normally loads up the previous configuration.

Normally you would type in 192.168.1.1 in your browser and it should goto the admin screen, enter password and name and you should be able to access the settings.

If you have disabled the DHCP on the router (by accident) then you will have to go into your netwrok settings on a pc, and set that up to 192.168.1.2-254 and you should be able to comms to it.

You may have blocked your MAC addresses or removed your IP addresses form the allow lists, disabled the DHCP etc so if ALL the PC's are locked out from it, then do as ddp suggested as there should be a hardware reset button located on the unit somewhere............
