Linksys WAG54G Problem

[Blaminator]

Hi guys, now normally i'd be able to sort this myself, but i suck, so heres my problem

i changed the router password a while back, and now i forgot what it is


how the crap do i reset it? bear in mind the wag54g doesnt have a reset button, instead it has an i/o switch

google found this...

Curiorsity of CCIP - here is the recommended reset procedure from Linksys

1.] Disconnect all Ethernet connections behind the router but leave power on (modem and computers)
2.] Press and hold the reset button for 30 sec., after that...
3.] Unplug the power keep holding down the reset button for another 5 sec.
4.] Then, plug back the power keep holding down the reset button for 5 sec., after that
5.] Release the reset button.
6.] Power off router for 30 sec.
7.] Hook up the connections.

I did say the WAG54G doesnt have a reset button, it has an I/O Switch

All reviews, posts and troubleshooting for the WAG54G speak of a reset button, So either u havent found it, or they mean the I/O Switch...

The reset button is very small, you couldn't activate it with your finger, you would probably need a sharp pencil.

I was looking at the users guide pdf before I post that msg... it's between power and lan port.

Blam im sure thats the router i set uo for a family member the other day, as Kaori says the reset button is between the power and the LAN port.
