Does anyone knows how to reset a router,. I got a buddy of mine who got me this router but I dont have any idea whats the password to get in and config the router,. is there a way to reset it so I can strat from scatch,.. Thankz,,

Focusone....I've got the procedures. Can your buddy get his hands on another? I'd be real interested in it. Here is the procedure..... 1) Enter ROM Monitor mode. Power cycle the router and within 60 seconds after the router comes up, press the break key. 2) Enter the o command in order to "read" the configuration registers original value. example: >o or you can use: e/s 2000002 3) set bit 6(along with the original bit settings)in order to ignore NVRAM on boot up. example: >o/r 0x***** 4) Initialize and reboot the router. example: >i 5) in SETUP mode, answer No to all questions.(Just say NO! hehehehe) 6) Enter priveleged mode. example: Router> enable 7) Load NVRAM to active memory. example: Router# configure memory 8) Restore the original config register value and enable all interfaces. example: hostname# configure terminal hostname(config)# congfig-register 0x value hostname(config)# interface xx hostname(config-if)# no shutdown 9) Recover/record lost password example: hostname# configure terminal hostname(config)# line console 0 hostname(config-line)# login hostname(config-line)# password xxxxxxxxx hostname(config-line)# Cntrl-Z hostname# write memory Enjoy it...if you don't put the router to good use, let me know and i'll be glad to take it off of you hands.

Good advice but why is it in the Linux forum? Just a question...
