Router Reset Question

How can you detect that a router has been reset to factory defaults? Is this data sent to a router log? or a server log?

I don't think so. A sure way to know is the password and network information would have changed to defaults. Unless it was reset and reconfigured but then the password would still be wrong.
Please remember to Kudo those that help you.

    How can you detect that a router has been reset to factory defaults? Is this data sent to a router log? or a server log?

    By definition, if the device is reset to factory-default, the logs will be empty (except for the power-on self test stuff).
    You could capture the console output while you execute the commands to reset the device.
    You should see it boot back up with the out-of-box setup re-enabled and very minimal configuration when you type "show run" and "dir".

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

    my ipad 1st generation will not locate wi-fi networks.  i have reset and have done router reseting, still nothing.  any suggestions?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Encryption algrothim used for Password reset question and answer

    We are trying to write a custom interface to the Password reset service.
    The interface is supposed to allow the user to enter a question and answer, then using SAM SDK write the value to the iplanet-am-user-password-reset-question-answer.
    The problem is SAM saves the values encrypted, so do any one know the encryption algorithm used and what is key or they are specified.
    Thnaks

    Only you and Apple know your secret question.  See if changing the password via email will allow access to your account.. Then you can chnag yur secret question. See:

  • Airport Extreme in extender mode does not reconnect after main router reset.

    I have an Airport Extreme 4th Gen (extender). set to extend the signal from an Airport Extreme 5th Gen (main).  Whenever the main router resets (after reconfig, etc) the extender does not reconnect.  I would have to restart the extender before it will connect again to the network.  However, my Airport Express set to extend will automatically reconnect.  Is this a settings issue?  Please advise. 

    Ok, well I am hoping you are not doing a re-config of your 5'th gen all the time? This should only be done very rarely... we're talking like less than once a year for many people.  Unless there's something else going on there, I wouldn't worry about it if you have to power-cycle the 4'th gen once in a few blue moons.

  • No Remote DVR After Router Reset

    Remote DVR was working fine,  then after router reset it no longer works.
    This is very poor system design.
    Rebooted DVR - No joy.
    Can ping DVR so know it is on the network
    DVR Self Diag passes all test and listener 1 is started
    FiOS TV Central Error Message: "There was an error while processing your request.  Please try again later."
    Router has TCP port 35000 forwarded to DVR port 8082 (192.168.1.100:8082)
    before reset it was UDP port 63145 forwarded to DVR (192.168.1.100)
    Did I already mention this is very poor system design.
    Motorola QIP-7216
    Actiontec MI424-WR Rev. C

    One other thing you can try.
    Unplug the dvr from power
    Power cycle the router
    Once the router comes back up, then plug the DVR back in
    When the DVR boots back up, supposedly the rules for the remote dvr will be reloaded into the router. Sounds strange but I've been told it works.

    Your only option will be to contact iTunes Store support and see if they can help you.  Click on this link and choose the Account Management option, and create a new case with iTunes Support. 
    Good luck!

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

    Click here for information. If you can't reset them through the method described in that article or by sending yourself a rescue email(the email may take a few hours to arrive), contact the iTunes Store staff via the link in the 'Additional Information' section.
    It isn't possible to create a rescue email address without correctly answering two of the questions.

  • Iphone 4 reset question

    Every now and then I like to start over and factory reset a device and start over. I a noticing lots of people saying that IOS7 is really bad.
    Now I am having no issues but on the odd occasion there is some lag, overall though I am very happy.
    My question mainly is to find out the difference between two actions.
    If I were to factory reset and start over I am sure I would notice an increase in some speed, but what is the difference between that and say reset device and then after restore from Icloud? Would I notice an increase with the restore as well? Would I be better of resetting and redownloading some apps etc (doing some spring cleaning in the process) or would a reset and restore practically be a reset but with the luxury of having my data again? Would I gain performance in much the same way as a reset and wipe all data?
    I notice there is some considerable space under "other" in Itunes when looking at the device, would this go after reset? (I guess this could be when I did an OTA update on the device ages ago but not certain)

    Well I did a reset and restore  using the restore option in ITunes. When a clean IOS installed it then prompted if I wanted to restore data from ICloud or Itunes backup. I chose ITunes back as this would be slightly faster route.
    Ive gotta say this phone now has a new lease of life and is so snappy! The "Other" data reduced from 1.2gb to 537mb so happier in that respect, still sounds quite high. Annoying really as I have only an 8gb model!
