First you need to fully uninstall the software from your computer, by first going to the system tray by the clock on desktop and exiting the wireless manager, then go to start > control panel >unistall programs> now unistall the wireless manager from here then exit .
Next ensure the router is on and take a pen or a paperclip and look on the back of the router and you will see a small round hole big enough for the pen to go into press the reset button in this hole for approx 10 seconds then switch off the router and modem
then follow the set up instructions here.

Both of these do not require the CD

Set up Wirelessly

You don't need the cd to set up VM routers, nor do you need a temporary cable connection, I have to do this a fair bit because the cd won't run on a Mac.
1. Connect to wireless network. The network will be called "Virgin Broadband" the passphrase (WPA key) is preinstall.
2. Open a web browser. You will be presented with a setup page. Enter a new network name and password, ignore everything else, click apply. You will be prompted for a username and password - ignore it and close the browser.
3. Connect to the wireless network using you new network name and passphrase.
4. Happy surfing.
It is actually quicker than running the cd.

Set up using an Ethernet cable
