WET54G v3.1 Will not accept the default password for web setup

The setup:
1 2WIRE wireless router for AT&T DSL connection
1 wireless laptop, online and good to go
1 desktop, too far from router to connect with an ethernet cable, this computer does not have wi-fi
1 new WET54G v3.1, trying to setup as a wireless-ethernet bridge to get the wired desktop on the network and online
I have set up the desktop with static IP: 192.168.1.1; Subnet 255.255.255.0; Gateway 192.168.1.226. The WET54G is directly connected to the desktop. I open Internet Explorer and go to 192.168.1.226. After entering the password "admin" and leaving the username blank, the login prompt simply reappears as if the password is incorrect. I have reset the WET54G to factory defaults numerous times (held the reset button for over 30 seconds). It simply will not accept the password.
Any suggestions? I tried live chat but the chat window was so slow and buggy that both times it seemed we were about to make progress the window would freeze up or refresh entirely and disconnect me. Extremely frustrating to say the least.
Thanks,
Sean

Hi brickmonkey,
Sorry for taking so long to get back on this. We left for a long vacation and I got ridiculously busy when we got back. ANyway I just spent some time working on this and wanted to report back. Still didn't get it to work.
Got into the 2Wire and wrote down it's settings:
Router Address: 192.168.1.254
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: (???) I did not see this under the summary page, but it was on the internet connection details page., it's a 151.x.x.x number, which the WET54G was not happy to accept as the default gateway. It gave me the error "DUT and Gateway cannot locate in different subnet." Also, on that internet connection details page, an additional subnet mask of 255.255.255.255 was listed, but I'm guessing 255.255.255.0 is the correct one to use, right?
Because it wouldn't accept that 151.x.x.x address, I can't get any farther. I did notice when setting up the SSID and security to match that of the 2WIRE, the channel was fixed at 6 and the dropdown was disabled. I changed the 2WIRE from 1 to 6 in case that was an issue. The WET54G is in Infrastructure mode, as the guide you linked to indicated.
Any thoughts with this new info?
Thanks again for your help with this,
Sean

My Macbook Pro is powering on in Safe Boot and will not accept the correct password

My Macbook Pro is only powering on in Safe Boot and will not accept the correct password. What do I do to get it out of Safe Mode?

Hello farahani hairon nizar,
If your Apple ID was changed from your old account, you may have to change it back to your old account to be able to sign out and then change it back after that is done. Take a look at the article below for more information.

EA6350 not accept the default password "admin" no matter I reset the router device.

Hello,
I just brought a new router EA6350 and it does not accept the 'admin' to login the router. I did reset the router and can ping 192.168.1.1. Also able to go into the login screen. But the default password: admin was not success to login.
Please help
Solved!
Go to Solution.

To isolate the issue:
Disconnect everything from the EA6350
Connect your computer to the EA6350 LAN Port
Make sure your computer wireless is disconnected or disabled
Connect to the router using this link http://192.168.1.1
If the router was reset to factory default you should be present a setup screen instead of a login screen

Do you know what happens if you delete the icloud account from an iphone 4s? Will it delete the pictures, documents, etc. from the phone, or just unlink the icloud from the phone? I want to associate a different icloud account to the phone.

Hello buddyacw
You would have to restore the iPhone. Download the latest version of iTunes and then follow the steps in the article below to get it working again.

I'm having problems uploading video taken with my iPhone 4 to Photobucket. FB will not accept the file extension which is ex. IMG_423. They will play on my computer and will upload to Facebook. Why is the phone taking video with this file instead of so

I'm having problems uploading video taken with my iPhone 4 to Photobucket. FB will not accept the file extension which is ex. IMG_423. They will play on my computer and will upload to Facebook. Why is the phone taking video with this file instead of something like .mov or mp4. How can I change the extension after the fact and avoid it in the future?

You said, "the 4 also has signal and wifi whereas the 5 has only wifi". By "signal", I'm assuing that you mean cellular signal. If so, that means your iPhone 4 is still active on your cellular number and your iPhone 5 is not. Contact your carrier to sort out which phone is active on your account.

I just updated to XI, but it will not accept the serial number

Hi there
If you have purchased an Acrobat XI upgrade you will be prompted to enter the Acrobat XI serial number first then the serial number for the prior version.
Which serial number isn't being accepted? Please provide more details and send me a private message with both serial numbers so I can check further.
Thanks
Bev
