What happens when you lose the administration password?

Hi juan- simple - find a paper clip or a SIM card pin -- on this router locate the "reset" hidden grey button - use the PIN and "hard reset" the router by pressing it for 10 seconds

Good question. I ordered 2 of these that didn't come with the admin password. Ended up sending the back because none of the tech support people could tell me what it was.

I have not taken it apart, but something in the system - keypad or control board remember the password over power outages.

It does. It forms a subnetwork which any device can log onto. It keeps your original password

No password protection to the best of my knowledge. If you know the key strokes, you can change them.

You should contact the previous owner and ask for the password. Also you can use the windows DVD to restore to factory default. If u do not know how to do it, google "how to restore to factory default".

After 10 invalid attempts the drive is "locked down" and all user data is NOT ACCESSIBLE (even if you now know the correct password). At this point (after the 10 invalid attempts and drive "lock down") ... you regain access to the USB drive by formatting (initializing) the drive with the in-built software (it loads every time you insert the USB drive). So your original (user) data is LOST after 10 invalid attempt, but the drive is perfectly usable (again) after it has been re-initialized. I would also suggest you get 2 drives of the same type ...copy your critical data to both drives and store 1 drive in another physical location (in case you loose one copy)!

Hi! There are two ways, 1. "admin" always is the User name for administration, you can set up a password or not, it allows you to do any changes. 2. Set up a Guest user, you must write the name of the User name and the password could be "nothing" or you can write a password for the guest user. So, if you type the IP or hostname, the system will ask you at least the username.

Mine won't let me in anymore (says I use an incorrect password, which is untrue.)I've forgotten where the space bar was, but try under the 0.

It cannot write, just links your identification to the computer so you can access certain programs.

Yes, call support. If you can't request to authentication transfer due to a hardware failure, they can help transfer your license.

It is actually worse than that. The included software stores your Windows password unencrypted in the Registry. Also, Apple bought this company so neither the hardware nor the software is supported any more.

If you lose the password, informate sorry there is no way to access. but this is very good article. regards

Typing in an IP will take you to a log on screen. I don't see an option for having no password. You can save the password to a keychain or leave as admin/admin for simplicity.

Just hit the backspace button and it erases the last letter put in.Now, will someone tell me what to do when it tells you you're using an incorrect password (and you're not) and it won't let you in to change the password or do anything else. I've lost all the addresses I put in mine.

Nope. For me it worked as expected--it didn't mount as a drive unless you use the password.

My computer has not slowed down but we did lose functionality on some apps but for only one user. Other users continue to be able to access them. No clue as to why or how to recover
