Model: TL-WDR4300  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: N750

I used to live somewhere else with a different Wi-Fi modem, name and password. Now that I have moved, the password of the previous modem, the modem and I own now and the password on the back of the router all do not seem to work. I'm clueless on how to have access on my router. Any tips on how to gain access to my router?

Like Matthew said, you need hard reset the router by holding the reset button/hole for 10s. 

 

Then you can connect to the default wireless network with the password printed on the back panel, and you need to reconfigure it to make you access internet. 

 

Good day.

find the reset hole or button, press it for more around 5-8s till the router's LED flashing. This will reset the router and you can re-configure it from the begaining.

 

Frankly speaking, SOHO router is easy. But it also requires some experience. So it would be better if you can find someone in the real world to help you.
