What is this router and what is the printer? (I assume that it is on wifi.)

I assume that "wsp reset button" is the WPS  button. That is not necessarily anything to do with "reset". It depends on the unknown model.

So what delivers the Internet to you? The hardware?

And what tells you that it does not work?

I have typed into search bar, 192.168.1.1 and a Sign In box comes up saying Your connection to the site is not private. It asks for a User Name and Password. I tried numbers on back of the router without success - the box just reappears.

Is this all happening in a browser of some sort with a PC wired into the router?
