Gahhh Linksys Problem

**C911** · 10-09-2007 07:15 AM

Ok so i dont know what my dang password is for my linksys router, my uncle had changed it and of course had told me and i wrote it down, but now i dont know what the heck it is (hence i lost the little slip of paper..)

Does anyone know the URL in IP form of linksys?

And does anyone know how to get the pw? Without going through linksys technical support?

(p.s. uncle is "away" at the moment, so i cant ask him.. haha)

You can call your ISP. They should be 24/7. That's what I did when that happened.

Besides that, I'm not very tech savy.

get IP of router (and all other machines on your network) with this

Hard resetting router (pin-hole button somewhere) will usually reset firmware back to factory settings (including changing password back to the default factory password)
This will wipe all other settings as well, just so you know

Hard reset, and google for the standard factory password for your router
