    Theres probably a button on the back which you have to hold down. Have a look on the Belkin site, it'll say in the manual.
    "I'm not even supposed to be here today."
  • There is usually a small hole in the back or underside which is just big eniugh to put the tip of a ballpoint pen in, usually you have to hold it in for a few seconds then release, this will reset all the router settings to the default factory settings not just the password.
    The default password maybe admin at a guess
    I love my spell checker, it stops me making all sorts of stupid smelling mistakes. :doh:
