basic router query

[MZB]

Here's a simple question, I'm sure.

I currently have a Dell Dimension 2400 Desktop. It is connected to the net
via cable, cablemodem, and also has a Linksys router. There is a blue cable
from the router to the 2400.

I also have a Dell
Inspiron 2200 with a wireless card. I use the laptop most of the time.

We are going to be moving into a new home. Unfortunately, I've misplaced the
password for my router settings. When we move, the router/cable/cable modem
will all be disconnected for maybe 24-48 hours. Then things will be
re-connected (same ISP) at the new house. Will I lose all my settings??

It will probably be fine, but even if it isn't, you ought to be able to
reset it to factory default & reconfigure it for your network very easily.
