    I have a linksys cable/DSL router and while trying to get Orb to work changed one of the router settings.
    I enabled UPNP and now I'm locked out of the router completely.
    I will no longer accept my password!

    Anybody know how I can get back into my router?
    HELP! PLEASE!!!

    TIA!

    Usually Linksys routers have a reset button. Just press it for 30 seconds and it should reboot setting its defaults.

    This may unconfigure your DSL configuration.

    There should be reset procedures on their website.

    Yep... mine i usually hold for 60 seconds but then you can use the default password and have to set everything back up.

    Also keep in mind that if you have changed the IP address range for DHCP, resetting it will also revert the IP range and therefore the LAN IP address of the router. Default is usually 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1.
