View 1 RepliesRecently, I purchased a Cisco 871W Router with which to practice/study for my CCENT with. Since I have made the purchase, it has given me nothing but headaches.
I cannot access the router to configure it, as the previous owner has a password set on it to access enable mode, which he/she has forgotten.
Here is the message that I receive when I attempt to log in into the router, to access enable mode. [URL]
Apparently there is supposed to be a one-time username and password of "Cisco", but this is not the case.
I have tried to do a password recovery, following this post discussion thread: [URL]
Unfortunately, this has not worked, and I am sure that I am doing something incorrectly. I am connected to the router via console cable and have tried power cycling the router and entering the break sequence, power cycling again, and then holding the space bar down for 15 seconds. The preceding has produced no results to speak of. Following, I set my terminal emulator, Tera Term, to the baud rate of 1200, power cycled the router, and held down the space bar for 20 seconds. I then immediately set the baud rate back to 9600. Nothing occurred, once again.
Furthermore, I have followed the password recovery instructions set forth by Cisco. [URL]
Nothing has come of these methods, either, and I do not see how they would work, or even apply to my situation, as Cisco seems to imply they should, as I cannot get into enable mode, let alone privileged mode or conf t mode, as the guidelines require.
Here is some info for troubleshooting:
OS: Win 7 HP 64 bit
Terminal Emulator: Tera Term
Router is not currently connected to any sort of internet connection. Only the power cord and console cable are properly connected.
Region : Others
Model : TL-MR3420
Hardware Version : V2
Firmware Version : 2.1
ISP : PTCL

I know the password but whenever I try to enter it it gives me a message that says, "The network password needs to be 128bits or 256 bits depending on your network configuration. This can be entered as 8 to 63 characters or 64 hexadecimal characters." From other forums I've looked at it says that I need to get to the router settings page. It gives me an IP adress to paste into the web browser but it doesn't come up as anything. What the heck?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a wireless setup with a linksys router hooked up. I mainly connect with my laptop but now I'm trying to test out a Dell Inspirion 3000 Windows XP. The Dell picks up the signal of my connection that is secure when I have the proxim router connected. When I go to put in my password I get this message : "The network password needs to be 40bits or 104bits depending on your network configuration. This can be entered as 5 or 13 ascii characters or 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters." Otherwise if I direction plug in the Ethernet cord it 'connects' but I can't do anything. I'm set up as a WPA Personal in security mode when I got into my linksys account.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am setting up a guest WLAN network on our existing 1242 AP's using a seperate VLAN. On most wireless devices which are on the company network/VLAN's, I have used WEP authentication with hex keys, and no broadcast. Obviously this cannot be the same for a guest internet connection.We want to have the VLAN/SSID in guest mode (which i have configured) for broadcasting, and then once someone selects the SSID on their laptop or smart phone, they are just prompted to authenticate with a standard alphanumeric password (example "guestwifi") instead of a 40 or 128 bit key.
I have searched all over and tried multiple things in the CLI on AP1, but can't seem to get anywhere.
I am new with ASA devices I have a ASA 5505, the former IT manager does not remember the password of it. I am just wondering do I lose the configuration on it if I reset the password?if yes, how can I download the configuration before resetting the password. and how can I upload the downloaded configuration
View 2 Replies View RelatedRecently I came across a router (Cisco 3845, IOS 12.4) configured for TACACS, one local username and an enable password. Going through the configuration I noticed the router didn't have an enable secret password which I thought was strange. The TACACS config is below, comments regarding the TACACS config and the consequences of not having an enable secret or if there is a need for one.

I'm moving from an 1801W to an SRP547.My adsl supplier (BT) has given me a username and password, and also a router IP address, a subnet and an gateway IP address. I have 13 fixed IP addresses. I don't speak cisco, so I'm using the built in interface to configure it.If i choose IPoA I can enter the IP settings. If I choose PPPoA I can enter the username and password.I do not see anyway I can enter both the IP settings and the username + password on the WAN configuration page.

View 2 Replies View Relatedthe following information before:
Switch: WS-C3750X-48P (Stack with 2 Members)
IOS: 12.2(58)SE2
Lic: IPBASEK9
[Code]....
Since i added another Member to the Stack, i'm facing the following problem: When i login with my tacacs user account, i will not be asked for the password. The same thing is for the tacacs account of my colleague, after entering the username he is logged in. It seems for me, that the passwords are cached only for this Switch.
There is a way to block access to a website by password protecting it through my linksys router, which is one of thoe wrt54gs. I know I can completely block access of a website and can restrict the viewing hours of facebook at certain times through the router admin IP site but was wondering if it was possible to make it so you have to use a password to view said certain site. If there isn't is there any way maybe through a program or do I have to go through my ISP to see if they can do what I am asking for.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an e2000 wireless router. I have the latest software version for the Cisco software.I have noticed that Cisco sets up the same password to access the router setup page as the wireless password..Anyone that connects to the main SSID will be able to connect to the setup page at 192.168.1.1...I know that I can change the password in the linksys setup page to whatever I want, but then when I open the Cisco software, it wants me to change the password to match what the administrator password is.Don't they realize that a wireless password is different than the Administrator password to access the router settings?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have tried multiple times to hard reset my Wireless G WRT54G ver.2 router, but have had no success. I held the reset for 15 sec, 30 sec, 2 min, etc and also tried holding it and then unplugging it and then plugging it back in. I've tried everything that I have seen suggested. My problem is that I don't know what the password is to access my router's web utility thing and I need to change the IP address. With every reset attempt, I hope that the default admin password will work, but sadly no.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have webcams that need port 8081 opened and I did that, everything worked fine until my DIR655 jammed up and power cycling it and the modem 3-4 times DID not make it work: no internet access and it was definitely a DIR655 problem. So, out with the paperclip to do the big reset, causing me to lose my configuration. When "most" of it came back up with my new config (I had screen prints), all was okay EXCEPT the webcams. Addresses and ports were all configured properly, address was fixed too on the client computer rather than use DHCP. I had a DNS relocation service running (DYNDNS) for the WAN side, but that address (My IP) didn't change either. I tried EVERYTHING. Finally, I realized in all my screwing around that I had enabled UPnP in my application, something I hadn't done before, but did this time as a desperation move. UPnP had always been checked off in the router. So.....I REMOVED my port forwarding and virtual server settings (either one worked before), and voila, everything working, Is this a normal occurrence, that if you have UPnP running, that this auto configuration overrides any manual configuration?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need properly configuring the RVS4000 device. I need all devices to be on the same subnet (192.168.0.x) and if I am drawing this out correctly in my head I would perform the following:Connect LAN port of RVS4000 to LAN port of the switch and statically assign a LAN IP of 192.168.0.251 to the RVS4000Switch is connected to LAN port of the 2Wire (192.168.0.254)Change operating mode from Gateway to Router in the RVS4000 Connections to the RVS4000 will obtain a DHCP IP address from the 2Wire that's upstream.As the WAN port of the RVS4000 would be unused, will it still answer requests for a VPN connection assuming the proper ports are forwarded to it?
