Default password won't work...

Hey all,
So I have a Model WRT54GS wireless router.  When I go to the router site (192.168.1.1) I get a box to put in a user name and a password.  I type in "admin" for the password and user name (as is suggested in the user manual), but it does not acceptand just dumps me on the 401 screen.  I am trying to do this because I appear to have lost the set-up CD.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!

Might be you have changed the router's password at the time you setup your router....So if you do not remember the password then....Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable....Now you can try with the "admin" password...

  • Wireless password won't work

    trying to connect to wireless at work, but the password won't work.... i try'd the same password on ipod... works fine... also i can use wireless at home... no prob....
    any ideas?

    Powerbook G4, you may have a wireless card that is too old and doesn't support newer encryptions schemes like WPA or WPA2. What are you using as your wireless encryption algorithm at home?
    Per my profile, you can see that I have a computer designed and manufactured eight years ago. It uses an old 802.11 "Airport" card; not "Airport Extreme" as does my Mac Pro. It doesn't do WPA or WPA2. If the wireless access point (WAP) at work is using those, you'll be prompted for a WEP password because your computer doesn't know any better. But it won't work.
    So first thing you need to do is find out what does the WAP use. Next thing you need to do is go into your System profiler and see what kind of Airport card your Powerbook has.
    If it's not an "Extreme" or "Express" or whatever, just a plain ol' "Airport" card, then you are SOL trying to use that to connect to your work's WAP if they are using WPA or WPA2. There are some USB wireless thingies that you can plug in to an available USB port and you can use that to access the work (and home) networks. I know that BDAqua has previously posted a URL or three that point to some inexpensive USB 802.11 transceivers that you could use on your Powerbook.
    As a side note, if this is indeed the case for your situation, this would also imply that you are probably using an inferior (as in hacked/cracked) wireless encryption protocol at home. Once you get a WPA2-capable USB thingy, get in to your router's wireless setup and change it to WPA2-PSK-AES.

    Sorry, but your issue has nothing to do with Apple networking. You may get better results getting a solution if you repost to the iCloud area of the Apple Support Communities.

  • Macbook pro did an update and restart and now my password won't work

  • New password won't work! Help please!

    So with the new software update, recently, I had to change my username to an e-mail address because my account wasn't "Safe." That's fine; I did that, but with the new username came a new password. Now, that password will not work! I even wrote it on a note verbatum. I've tried every password I normally use, including the original iTunes password. I've tried variations of it with different capitalizations. I've tried resetting the warnings and caches in the iTunes store, as seen on another thread. I've tried restarting my computer and my phone. I've tried everything.
    I even tried resetting it, but Apple says it sends the email and it doesn't show up in my inbox, leaving me unable to change it! I've tried checking all my inboxes, but I can't find the email... I also went down the security questions route, but I made the account when I was much younger and can't remember the answers for the life of me. Normally, I would just make a new account, but I have $20 on this one, and I'm not giving that up.
    Does anyone have any way to get the reset email to show up? Or does anyone know why it won't? Help is much appreciated! Thank you!

    I have the same issue.
    Everything else including this site recognises my new apple password. BUT FaceTime still does not ....
    This is IMMENSELY annoying as it means I cannot speak with relatives in England at the moment. Facetime is so buggy with this kind of thing I may switch them all to Skype when I return home from the states.
    EVERYTHING else works fine - JUST facetime that is screwed up (a common occurrence sadly ... unclear how something so simple can make using it so difficult and awful).
    Please explain how to resolve and not just change the password .... I have tried this and again EVERYTHING but facetime works so it must be facetime. Shame it can't be removed and reinstalled ...

  • WEP Password Won't Work!

    I have a Wireless router, which can do WEP, WPA and WPA2 encryption. If I have WPA2, then my desktop (Windows) can't remember the password, so that encryption is out for the mo, WPA won't work on our old laptop, and so WEP is all that's left. Every device in my house (including my iPhone) can connect, but my MacBook fails too! I have tried loads of different WEP passwords, and it can still connect to other WEP protected networks, but not mine! Is there anything I could have done, or is this a general problem?

    Just like Windows stores your network profile info in C:\Document and Settings, the mac stores your network location in a plist file.
    WEP is really for B/G networks, most newer networks are using WPA/WPA2 because it is more secure.
    Can you connect to WPA2 Personal with the mac and that router?
    Can you create a new Windows profile under network settings? (you should be able to).
    Sometimes if you cannot connect using ASCII character for the password, look at your Key 1: on Windows for the Hex version of the password and try typing the Hex in the password box.
    IF your password for WEP is short, like less than 8 characters, that may be the problem, it order to get WPA2 you need a password at least 8 characters long, 10 is better and more accepted by encryption schemas. Try adding 1234 to the end of your existing password (i.e. password1234) in the router, then input it again to see if it works. Try making the password exactly 10 characters long if you can.
    WEP is like having no security at all, WPA/WPA2 is much more secure.

  • ITunes password won't work

    Aplle TV keeps telling me to put in my password but when I do it won't work. But I checked it on iTunes and it worked there, as well as online. Then I went online and changed it but Apple TV still won't accept it. What gives?
    Edit: Nevermind it's working again. I had to reset Apple TV.

  • Old name and password won't work when networking to new Win7PC.

    I have a name/password problem when trying to network a new Win 7 PC via a new Netgear 2200 Router to a MacMini.
    It networked 100% OK with the old XP System and old Netgear Router, but now when I click on the PC icon that shows up in Workgroup the old password doesn't work and there is a different popup menu that won't allow the old name and password.
    Interestingly the Mac Mini still networks with the XP laptop using the old pupup box with name and password.
    Netgear say it's not their problem - even though they list 'mac compatible' on their box.
    The PC manufacturer (Acer) say Mac issues are outside of their free technical support.
    Apple support said the Macmini was 'out of warranty'.
    So I'm stuck using a USB stick or email to transfer files from one to the other!
    Please help, I need that network connectivity back asap.

    Option 1
    If you've enabled root logins, log in as root and promote the other user to an admin.
    Option 2
    Recover your entire system from the last Time Machine snapshot taken before the damage was done, if you know when that was. Afterwards you can restore any data that has changed since then from a later snapshot. If you’re an advanced user familiar with the shell, there may be a quicker fix, but I prefer not to get into that.
    Option 3
    Back up all data, then boot in single-user mode (command-S at startup.) When the text stops scrolling, follow the prompts to make the boot volume writable. Then enter the following command very carefully:
    rm -i /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    You should get the following line of output below what you entered:
    remove /var/db/.AppleSetupDone?
    If you do, then enter
    y
    and press return. Then type
    reboot
    Press return again. The system will boot into the Setup Assistant, as if you were setting it up for the first time. Skip the prompt to transfer information. Create a user with the same name as the old admin user. Log in and test. You may need to recreate your other user accounts, if any. Their files won't be deleted.
    Option 4
    If you're not comfortable with any of the above options, get someone more experienced to help you. One way to do that is to make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store. It's a free service.

  • Oracle password won't work after fresh installation

    I've just installed 10g and tried to connect to SQL*PLUS and EM. I have the default password as oracle and username oracle on the system. No idea why I can't log in since Oracle never gave me the option on the basic installation.
    Any ideas?

    There is no default password in 10g.
    You should use the password you specified during installation, if you don't remember try the following from your command line.

  • Administrator Bios Password won't work on HP 4420s XT940UT#ABA Windows 7 64 Bit

    Someone please help me with this!!
    I bought this laptop from a friend (have a receipt) who sold it to me because the screen was cracked and all spidered out when you turned it on. Well everywhere he went to ask about getting the screen fixed it was very expensive ($250 - $350) and he said he would just get a newer laptop. So he sold me this one which is a HP4420s XT940UT#ABA Probook Model. About a week after I bought this Probook the friend who sold it to me died suddenly. This was sudden and terrible. Some time later I got around to buying the LCD screen for this model, replaced it myself (was very easy actually) and booted up the laptop with a fresh install of Windows 7 Pro edition 64 Bit. After installing all my software and using the laptop for quite some time now, I wanted to get into the Bios which I had never done. So when I started up the laptop, hit escape, then F10 to enter BIOS, there were two places to enter a password which is different then any Dell I've ever owned. One was mine I guees that I set up using HP protect tools and the other says BIOS/Administrator. Well I can make most changes using the one I set up with my password however my password doesn't work nor can I get into some of the very important changes I wanted to make using the Bios/Administrator, like turning on the LoJack, figuring out the hard disk lock etc, turning on turbo boost, fan controls, etc. Well Since the person I bought it from is no longer with us, there is no one to turn to for the answer to this Administrator/BIOS password question / problem.  I tried taking out the Rtype battery and resetting it that way, didn't work. I called HP multiple times and they sent me to a BIOS page to download the same BIOS I have already, wouldn't let me install it. When I bring up the command prompt and put in BiosConfigureUtility.exe nothing happens, just tells me wrong command. When I try to get into the BIOS going through the C: file into the SSM files, I reach the BiosConfigUtility.exe file, click on it to open and it just flashes a small command page way to fast to read what it says. I would like to have complete control over my laptop figuring I have so much time and money invested into it now. Could the problem have something to do with installing the 64 bit version of Windows 7 instead of the 32 bit I guess it originally came with? I have all the manuals and they say that this laptop is Windows 7 Pro Ultimate 64 bit compatible so that's what I installed. I get mixed answers from a lot of different people on this and would like a answer from an HP person who has experience dealing with the BIOS in the Business models of Probooks if possible please. I really like this Probook and have since became a major fan of HP over Dell and Lenovo products.  I plan to buy two more probooks, one for my wife and one for my daughter because this one is like a MacBook, only better.  Thank you for reading this and hopefully someone can help. 
    Model: HP Probook 4420s
    Type: XT940UT#ABA
    Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate
    BIOS Version: 68AHHH Ver.F.20
    SM BIOS Version: 2.6
    Hardware Extraction Layer: Version 6.1.7601.17514
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    once you log a support case with HP customer care, they will provide you once utility and steps to run it. which can capture the UUID. BTW- UUID is a unique ID for each machine (16 or more digits) stored in BIOS itself.
    Once the utility results(UUID and other info) in the log file, shared with HP. they can generate a key file(SMC) to reset.
    well, Technical support depertment can help you in it, no need to ask for any specific person or department.
    hope it helps.

    I have downloaded my new verison 11--now I can't open. Password won't work

    Thank you for the message. That also tells us that you're on a Mac. The error is a strange one, -1712 means "timeout" and it's hard to think what will cause that. Some more questions. Please answer them all, or let us know if any of the questions don't make sense.
    1. Can you open the Adobe Reader app in the normal way? That is, from Applications?
    2. Can you open other PDF files, from web pages rather than mail? Here is one to try out http://www.adobe.com/enterprise/pdfs/ebxml_faq.pdf - it isn't to read it's just a test. What happens?
    3. What is your mail app? That is, at the time of this -1712 error, what app name is shown at the left of the menu bar?
