    There should be a reset button (Looks like a little hole) on the back.. Hold that down for 30 sec or so

    Should do the trick

    Off there site

    "changed the routers password, and I forgot what I changed it to. Is there anything I can do?



    Answer

    Hold the reset button on the unit for 30 seconds or more and the router will be restored to factory defaults. This also means that your configuration will be set to factory defaults also, so if your router is configured for your ISP you may loose your connection until you set the unit up again. The default password for the router is admin in lower case letters""

    OK... I gave it a solid 20 since the manual said 10 will reset back to factory settings.

    I'll go a solid 30 this time.
