How do you login to the router if the original owner passed away and you don't know his login info or security question answers? I need to login to change the router from 5 to 2.4ghz to setup a security camera.

You can return the router to its factory settings. Use the end of a paper clip or a similar object to press and hold the Reset button on the back of the router for at least seven seconds. The router resets and returns to the factory configuration settings.
You can login into the router UI by going to routerlogin.net and set up the router as if it were new.
