    Look at the label on it. If there isn't a "V number", then it is V1.

     

    If you visit the support pages:

    you can feed in the model number and find all the documentation for your hardware.

     

    If you have forgotten the admin password, then only option may be a factory reset:

  • Can you log into the router via a hardwired connction? If so, all you need is the admin password to the gui.

    If you've forgotten this info, then you'll be needing to reset the device back to factory and use the factory login info.
