Secure TC-W7960

Im having problems with someone hacking me that is why I bought this modem/router although it's already a bit better I'm not exactly sure how to secure the router. Some how somebody keeps getting in and setting up a timer so I can't log into my router to make changes. Could some one please tell me or better yet a link to the best possible secure setup. Thank u.

@Spiderquest

To change the Admin credentials for the router log into it's management page click Advanced - System Tools - Administrator. Then set the password to something unqiue. Although if this is happening now on two different routers and I assume two different SSID names and passwords then this may be less about someone hacking you and more about your PC being infected with a virus or other malious software. If changing the Admin password does not resolve your issue you may want to run an antivirus on your computer.
