another way is to unplug the router and try and hold the reset button in and then plug it back in still holding in the reset button for a further 30secs!
Most Netgear routers require the reset button on the back of the unit to be pressed for at least 5 seconds or more, (use a ballpoint pen tip it's easier and won't slip) until the LEDs flash on and off. Then let it reset which takes about two minutes till it's settled down.
The defaults for a Netgear router are:
Username: admin
Password: admin
Not too sure, but in my case it's 5s to reset the connections, etc... And 30s to completely reset the router. There should be some infos in the manual of your router.
