Wifi Router Issue

[Tommok]

I've messed up the router at my parent's place again trying to get my Nexus to connect to it. This time I knew the password was OK but my Nexus wouldn't connect, it just said "Obtaining IP Address" for ages but then gave up and said something like disconnected due to weak connection.

 

So I boldly reset the router by poking a pin in the hole at the back but rather than doing a soft reset and just clearing any conflicts etc, it's seemingly reset fully and is now an "open connection" not password protected.

 

Trouble is I can't connect to Internet now via my mum's laptop (to do anything, including access router settings) because laptop says it is set to only connect to that router via a "secure connection" and it's not secure anymore - any ideas how to change that setting on the laptop and free up internet connection and change passwords?

 

Weird thing is that altho it's technically an open connection I still can't access it via my Nexus either - it says it's "connected" but I can't access anything

 

Cheers in advance.
