How do I reset my Rosewill RNX-N4PS wireless router's password?

[TheInternal]

Greetings,

I couldn't find anything in the manual that said how to do this, and I've tried pushing and holding a pin in the little reset hole with the power on and the power off. For the life of me, I can't figure out how to reset my router back to factory default settings.

It's the Rosewill RNX-N4PS. It's worked like a charm for months, but a friend recently came over and couldn't connect since I'd forgotten the WEP password and can't figure it out >.<

It's working fine, I just need to reset my friggin password so folks can get online.

How long are you holding the reset button? Other devices I've come across, the documentation usually states at least 15 seconds, but I've seen some that state as much as 30.

Go to
Administrator Setting: Administrator password change; Idle time out
Reset Setting: Reboot; Reset to Factory Default

I've held it about ten seconds. I can try longer.
I can't go to administration or anything since I can't remember the friggin' password.

holding down the reset thingie for a long period of time did it, I think.

Tried holing the reset button in for 30 seconds. Guess I'm not sure what I was supposed to look for after I did that. My son set this up for my birthday (so happy) but no one else can join the router. I wrote the password down (obviously wrong). Can Justinmac please tell me where to look for the Administrator Setting?

Default username: admin, password: admin

If you have another model.

Google the Router model number and the word "manual".

You would find somewhere the Router's manual.

Looks at it, and there should be a mention of the default login credentials.
