2. What can I do if I forgot my password?

If you forgot your password, you must reset your router. Unfortunately this process will change all your settings back to the factory

defaults.

To reset the router, locate the reset button (hole) on the rear panel of the unit. With the router powered on, use a paperclip to hold the

button down for 10 seconds. Release the button and the router will go through its reboot process. Wait about 30 seconds to access the

router. The default IP address is 192.168.0.1. When logging in, the username is

admin and leave the password box empty.
