Possible default logins for WRT54GS?

roakes · 11 Sep 2007 at 22:51

Hey all,

My mate just got his parents a WRT54GS and asked me to help set it all up, only problem is that the default login of username: (blank) and password: "admin" doesn't seem to work on it, does anyone know of any other default passwords it could be otherwise some way of getting around this?

Thanks

Russ

its either admin/admin, root/admin or admin/root ( thats user name/password )

Why dont they put these sorts of things in the manuels.

I'm sure my WRT54GL was admin / password iirc

They do, the manual says blank username and password "admin" but out of the box it didn't work...will try your suggestions though.

Otherwise is there a way to reset the router back to factory settings?

There's a reset button on the back, push and hold it till the power light flashes then let go.

You can use any username as long as the pass is correct

sometimes they don't reset properly..

i hold reset -with router powered on, for about 30 seconds
then remove power, and repeat for 30 seconds

put power back in
