Hello,

we have purchased the router from ebay with no where to return so need to break the password of this, so please help if anyone has done this before.

Thanks and regards.

Look at the image below.

Take note of #12 & #15.
Power down the router.
Open the lid and eject any CF inside.

what is the exact break sequence to enter ROMmon mode

If you eject the CF and power on the router does it take you straight to ROMmon?

If it does, enter the command "confreg 0x2142", insert the CF and reboot the router.

If the router boots up normally, erase the present config (because it has the setting password recovery disabled) and then change the config-registry back to 0x2102.
