Views: 12456 Printable Version If you have forgotten the router's user name and password, and the default user name and password aren't working, try resetting the router back to factory defaults: With the router powered on, hold the reset button (located on the back of the router) for 25 seconds. Then disconnect the power from the router and wait 10 seconds before plugging it back in. After the reset, you should be able to login to the router with the default user name and password. Merry Christmas All!

I guess I'll bring the box and router to the PLUG clinic. With regard to answer a) I tried again with caps lock, both on and off. With regard to answer b) Rich Shepard in a previous email said "You have both interfaces shown, but only the ethernet (eth1) is running." With regard to answer c) the router lights went out, and eventually came on again, and from that I infer the router was rebooting. Whether my interpretation of what the lights on the router mean may be suspect! So....I think the answer is d) Argh....I don't relish hauling my box to the clinic, but oh well....
