Lost Router password & username
Can't believe I did this. I managed to lose the document I had this information on.
Anyway it's a netgear rangemax dgn3500
Is there a slick trick to get it to reset to the admin and password that it has when it came out of the box?
I tried the paper clip in the little hole in the back for 5 seconds. All it did was reboot the thing.
In the back: There is a little hole into which a paper clip can be inserted, a little brown button about an eighth of an inch in diameter, and a power on/off button.
I tried holding the little brown button in for 10 seconds to no avail.
What about leaving it powered down for some period?
Any one ever recovered from such a doofus error?
