Question an unusual request...

hi guys,i dont know if this even belongs here.

I know you prob wont believe me, but this is purely legit...

I have a mysweex wireless router that im just using as a wireless access point.

i have forgotten the password...and i cant believe that the reset button has blown on it...
i held it down for a long time...but its still keeping the same ip / username / password
(idiot,i will never not make a txt with device info ever again)

i realise this is a legit / tech help site and its not a hacker / cracker site (scumbags)
but does anybody know if i can clear the user/password as the only way
i can fix this is to give him another router...out of my money.

can anybody please help me...or point me to somebody / somewhere who can...

please...:)

We don't provide any help with lost passwords or getting around password protection. Obviously, we can't determine the real intent here, so our policy is to abstain from any assistance in these matters.
