Your only way out is probably to reset this 17-year old device, based on something launched in 2003:

 

How do I perform a factory reset on my NETGEAR router? | Answer | NETGEAR Support

 

I mention the age because things have changed a lot since we entered the 21st century. So that link may not cover your router. But you can still get the manuals:

 

Visit the support pages:

Support | NETGEAR

Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.

Re: WGR614v7

Instead of resetting, an upgrade might be a better idea as @michaelkenward says. 

That was an old single band wireless G device. 

Its speeds are atrocious and probably only suited to really slow dsl connections. 

It also slowed down big time if any wireless B devices were connected. 

It'd go from a blistering 20mbps wireless throughput to 8mbps. 

 

Even something fairly basic from the current generation is going to be significantly faster and have better security.
