There is no generic password, that would create a HUGE security hole. If you have held the reset pinhole down for 15 seconds or so with the unit powered on, then released it, the password should be set to what is on the router label. admin will be the user and when you type the password you should see what appears to be other characters when you type..
One person with this issue had to type the password into notepad and copy paste it to get in.
You can change the default setting of 5 bad logins but I DO NOT recommend this credit to armond_in_nj
"You can reset the number of allowed unsuccessful logins. Log on to the device, then click on "Advanced." In the far left column, choose "Users." In "Login Configuration" set the desired number of unsuccessful logins.
Also be sure to either activate, accept, or save all desired changes prior to changing screens or logging off."
Personally I have also added and extra user in case I have an issue with admin

My daughter's ipod touch is locked due to too many incorrect password attempts (thanks to her little brother). It is displaying the red bar that states ipod is disabled connect to itunes. Problem is we don't have the computer that the ipod was originally synced with and she doesn't want to reset the ipod. In this instance we know the password.. so is there anyway to get the ipod to ask us one more time to enter the password? I'm not sure how many incorrect attempts were made, but it doesn't state anything about try again in so many minutes.. help, please!

How you restore your security pass code if you have disabled your iPod, due to too many pass code attempts?
If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
iOS- Understanding passcodes
If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
Follow these steps to restore your device:
1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
2. Connect your device to your computer.
3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
4. Select the Summary tab.
5. Select the Restore option.
6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
necessary to create another.
7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
logo while starting up:
After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
you see "iPhone is activated."
9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup.
If you can not restore your device then you will need to go to recovery mode.
Placing your device into recovery mode:
Follow these steps to place your iOS device into recovery mode. If your iOS device is already in recovery mode, you can proceed immediately to step 6.
1. Disconnect the USB cable from the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, but leave the other end
of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the
red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake
and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release the Sleep/Wake
and Home buttons.
3. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device.
The device should turn on. Note: If you see the screen pictured below, let the device
charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then
start with step 2 again.
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen.
When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
5. If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the following "recovery mode" alert:
6. Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you don't see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Additional Information:
Note: When using recovery mode, you can only restore the device. All user content on the device will be erased, but if you had previously synced with iTunes on this computer, you can restore from a previous backup. See this article for more information. -

my phone is disabled due to too many entries of passcode. How do I unlock?
This will erase everything off your phone, but you need to do a restore. If iTunes wont let you restore it, while plugged in to the computer (with iTunes open), press and hold both the lock and home buttons, then release the lock button when screen goes black.

Iphone is locked but I can't restore because "find my iphone" is on. I'm prompted to turn it off in settings but, obviously, I can't because I'm locked out due to too many incorrect passcode attempts. What should I do? PS: I downloaded IOS7 today. My passcode was never enabled! But after I installed the new software it automatically turned it on. I hadn't used it in so long, I couldn't remember my last passcode, hence the lockout.
Hello 199Seth
Reset the password and that will take care of activating your iPhone.

Email sub-account locked out due to too many log in attempts.
Hi All, If someone has had this issue can you share how to get around this? When I try to log into my sub-account it sends me an access code. But the code brings me to my primary email account, not the sub-account. Thanks in advance for any help on this! VAFrank
Been on hold for over two hours on three different calls -- I guess Verizon tech support is off the holiday? Must be nice! Meanwhile, can't get to email on sub account! This is a sad joke!! You mean that I will be locked out of this email until they decide to take calls again? There is NO reason why I should not be able to correct this from the web without having to speak to anybody! Totally unaccepable. I had better control over sub-accounts with Comcast. Oh, well. I thought Verizon had their act together better than Comcast with customer service and web tools but evidentally I was wrong. With Comcast it was simple -- I paid their bills but never lost service and could fix anything myself. With Verizon, I pay pretty much the same amount for same service but at least I could fix issues suich as this -- I rarely had to call Comcast for tech support -- I've had to call Verizon THREE TIMES to fix this same issue in six months from hiccups with password programs -- I shouldn't see "NULL" for the secret question -- nor should I see the main account when I get locked out of the sub-account and go through the process to get the text code on the phone and whatnot, then get sent to the password settings for the main account -- that is sloppy! Worse, while I see "NULL" for my secret question -- the voice agents can see the question because they ask me for the secret answer! Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy! Worse, Verizon has no explanation for this unacceptable nonsense and has to know about it because I've brought it up with agents. That tells me Verizon simply doesn't care or is satisfied with how things are. I can get just as lousy customer service from Comcast but, as I said, at least I could fix issues such as this with clear instructions on the Comcast customer page -- no "hidden" or "special" links like what was mentioned earlier in this thread, which don't work anyway now if they did at one time! I was with Comcast for 10 years, never, ever had a situation where I couldn't unlock an account. So, counting the days until my contract is over! A year and a half, sadly.

How do I reset the answers to my security questions. I lost mine and have been locked out due to too many failed attempts. I tried every thing I could find through apple support, nothing worked. I cant buy apps for my new phone with out fixing this
You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form. There's also a link to do so in the Additional Information section of the article you asked this question from.

My daughter's ipod touch has been disabled after too many wrong password attempts.
The ipod was never synced to the computer so can't connect to itunes.
How else can we enable the ipod touch again?Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. In your case, choose any computer with iTunes software. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -
