Ive lost my router username and password

Im not a very knowledgeable person when it comes to networking stuff so ill try and explain this the best I can.
I have a Cisco router the number on it is EPC2425. 
I set a user name and password I've long forgotten for access to the web based security protocols for the modem and if there was one I've lost the disk for the control protocol program.
I need to get to the port forwarding a such on there and I have no way to a present.
Any help would be nice.
Thanks

Don't try to reset your router while you already forget the password.
Just press & hold the router reset button at least 20 sec. back side of the router to reset its to factory mode. Now it is ready for  a new setting.
So everytime when you forget the password, and you are not able to get back it or  reset it , just do the same procedure as I already mentioned above; whatever router or operating system youare using.
Share your more question with  me & I will try to help you to troubleshoot your wireless router problem. >>>>>>>
Thanks,

  • Forgot router username and password

    I have forgotten my router username and password. How do I recover them?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    What is the model number of your router? What username and password are you referring to, is it to log into the router page or are you looking for the router's wireless network password? to log into the router page default password is admin. If you cannot access the router using the default password , then you will have to reset the router.

  • WRT54G2- Lost username and password for router webpage

    When I type in my router's (WRT54G2) webpage it asks me for a username and password as normal.  But my problem is I forgot what my username and password was.  So how would I be able to find it or reset it?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You have to reset the router to factory defaults pressing the reset button for 30 seconds... There is no other way if you forgot the password...

  • I have lost my username and password and can't find my way to the "firefox window" to see if I can retrieve my sync key.

    Hi Steve,
    Depends which OS
    version.
    If OSX try this instead...
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Change Password from the Installer menu up at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Change Password.*
    If worse comes to worse try this...

  • My username and password don't work to access MI424-WR Rev F router

    I'm trying to access my router to upgrade to WPA2 and disable Upnp for my FTP client and for some reason the router will not accept my username and password for the router.  Currently the stock WEP settings are in place.  Need to get this done because I need to use FTP to upload my website to my domain online.  Any ideas?  I've tried the username and password several times, both as standalone, and in the form of email.

    Try the username of admin, and the password of your router's Serial Number. Failing that, give the Rev. F a Factory Reset, log into the router at the same IP address, and finally, set a new password for the router. The default login, if prompted, is admin/password respectively.
    Another good reason to use WPA2: The Rev. F is a Wireless N router, a Draft N that runs at 65Mbps at least. To comply with the N spec and to also get N speeds, you need to use WPA2 with AES Encryption. Use anything else, and you will not get the speeds you're looking for.

  • What is the username and password for the airport extreme router

    I just switched from a wired router to an airport extreme and im trying to access the router information by typing in my router into the search bar of safari, when I used my old router the username and password was admin, admin. but this isnt the case with the airport extreme, does anyone know what the username and password combination is for airport extreme?

    Unlike routers from most other manufacturers, Apple's Airport devices cannot be configured using a web browser pointed to the IP address of the Base Station. Any manual configuration of the Airport Base Station must be done using the Airport Admin Utility provided by Apple.
    FYI, when using the Airport Admin Utility the default password for the Airport Base Station is the word "public".

  • I lost the usernames and passwords for my websites when I installed Firefox 4. How do I recover them?

    I bookmarked frequently used websites. Many of which had secure user names and passwords. I used firefox, norton and roboform to remember the user names and passwords. All of these were lost when I upgraded to Firefox 4. I need to recover the usernames and passwords. I also want to use these features going forward. What do I do?

    Figured it out. Just gotta delete keychain.plist, which is found in one of the following two spots:
    C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\Preferences\keychain.plist
    C:\Documents and Settings\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Apple Computer\Preferences\keychain.plist

    You are getting this message because you are trying to create an iCloud account on a PC.  You can only create iCloud account on an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch) running iOS 5 or higher, or on a Mac running OS X Lion (10.7.5) or higher.  After creating your account on one of these devices you will then be able to sign into the account using this ID on your PC.

  • Lost server username and password

    I don't know my WEP key, so I tried the standard method of typing http://192.168.2.1 into internet explorer to log on to the router, but it asks for a username and password that I don't know. What an I do to find these out?
    I have also downloaded a number of programs that search for any WEP keys used recently, but they don't find anything.
    Please help!!!
    Thanks

    The default password for the router is admin in lower case.You can also try some of your common password...If that doesn't work then,you need to reset the router and reconfigure all the settings from the scratch.

  • Configure a Cisco router with Username and Password.

    Hello Guys,
    Am quite new in cisco and i need to configure an 891 cisco router,can someone please show me step by step configuration commands for configuring Username and Secret Password.I would like the router to ask for "Username"and " Password" anytime i want to login the router through telnet.I also want to know if i have to erase the default configurations on the router first, before i start the configuration,and how it should be done in other not to loose the router whiles working on it.Thanks for your usual quick responds.
    Regards,
    Eben.

    Hello Eben,
    Peter has suggested to use SSH because of the fact that telnet data is sent in clear text, so someone with the right tools could easily find your password and your device could/would be compromised. It is security best practice. SSH is encrypted.
    Technically speaking you do not need to change the hostname / domain name. But majority of Cisco documentation follow this method.
    In case you are interested on how to do this without change... see below.
    Router(config)#
    Router(config)#crypto key generate rsa modulus 1024
    % Please define a hostname other than Router.
    Router(config)#crypto key generate rsa modulus 1024 label CISCO
    The name for the keys will be: CISCO
    % The key modulus size is 1024 bits
    % Generating 1024 bit RSA keys, keys will be non-exportable...[OK]
    Router(config)#
    *Jul 11 13:27:51.431: %SSH-5-ENABLED: SSH 1.99 has been enabled
    Router(config)#
    The normal cases just as shown in Cisco documentation, the parser (without a label on the crypto key) would force us to change the hostname, create a domain name. I think the domain name is there to put a label on the keys.
    Router(config)#crypto key generate rsa general-keys modulus 1024
    % Please define a hostname other than Router.
    Router(config)#crypto key generate rsa
    % Please define a hostname other than Router.
    Router(config)#hos
    Router(config)#hostname ISR
    lexnetISR(config)#crypto key generate rsa general-keys modulus 1024
    % Please define a domain-name first.
    ISR(config)#ip domain name net.com
    ISR(config)#exit
    ISR(config)#crypto key generate rsa general-keys modulus 1024
    The name for the keys will be: ISR.net.com
    % The key modulus size is 1024 bits
    % Generating 1024 bit RSA keys, keys will be non-exportable...[OK]

  • Retrieving my username and password on my router settings.

    Okay. So a while ago i secured my network and then i happened to unsecure it cause someone in our house couldnt seem to get their computer to access the internet even though all the other computers were able to. anways. I want to resecure the network, but I went to the ip 192.168.1.1 to change the settings back and it brings up a username and password window that i never remember popping up before.
    so i assume that i made a username and password for my router and just dont remember? anyways, How do i reset it to factory or get into my settings. arg. **bleep** technology.

    some of the lights were still flashing when i hit the reset button but its weird... i have tried the username and password that i figured i would have used to secure it and then also tried username "admin" w/ password as the password and also just password with no username. it goes to a page that says Opening page with the window to enter my info on top of it but it just says loading the entire time. nothing happens. not sure if that means i typed it in right and the site just sucks or what? cause I left it up for a good 5 minutes and it was still doing the same thing.

  • CANNOT CONNECT TO WIFI THROUGH IPOD TOUCH 4G..ROUTER REQUIRES USERNAME AND PASSWORD..HELP NEEDED

    i have a ipod touch 4g...and my router requires WEP key and a username and a password when i connect to it through my laptop..ipod touch only asks for a password i.e. the WEP key..question is how to enter the username and the password in ipod touch?  

    my service provider has provided me with a username and a password..therefore my router is "NOT ALWAYS CONNECTED TO THE INTERNET"..also PPPoE is enabled...
    i think i ll have to call the ISP and tell him to remove the username and password...because i dont think that ipod has a provision for entering passwords other than the WEP key..
