Thread: Recover Lost Password From Router (MAC)

Hi Guys,

This is a short tutorial for getting your lost password from the router. This will only work if you have saved the password in your router. I have a mac and used the Terminal.app which came with the system. THIS MIGHT ALSO WORK ON LINUX (let me know if someone has success with that)

Anyway, here's what u need to do.

1) Open Terminal (Applications-Utilities-Terminal)

2) Type: Telnet -l admin 192.168.xxx.xxx (Where 192.168. is your router'sip address. For example mine is 192.168.1.1). It will ask for password. Enter the password for your router. (Most default password are admin).

3) Type: show all password

4) Data will come up on your terminal window. Find the line PPE username: which will be your BSNL username. The next line PPE password will be your password for Bsnl..

Hope this helps...

HI,
I have the nokia siemens router and I had changed the router admin login and password. Now I can not login to the admin page( 192.168.1.1). Is there a way to recover the password or I will have to contact BSNL?

Please help

Thanks you,

There will be a small hole in the backside of the router. When modem is ON, keep it pressed for say 30 seconds. It will reset the modem into factory settings. Be warned ! You need to configure it again.

There is no reset button on the back, all it has is a switch that turns the router on or off
