Para conseguir que el router vuelva a la configuración original, debe pulsar en el botón de reinicio (por lo general en la parte posterior del router) de entre 10 y 30 segundos dependiendo del router. Es posible que tenga un alfiler o algo pequeño para presionar el botón. Una vez que haya reiniciado el router, el nombre de usuario y la contraseña se cambia a los valores por defecto, admin y la contraseña (tambien en algunos casos admin y 1234), respectivamente. Una cosa que debes recordar es que al restablecer el router va a cambiar toda la configuración del router a la configuración de fábrica. Esto significa que usted perderá todos los cambios realizados desde que recibió el router. Asegúrese de anotar que ninguna de las cosas que ha cambiado, así que usted puede cambiar de nuevo después de la reposición. Además, recomiendo actualizar a la última versión del firmware después de la reposición.

How do i change my mtu settings for my surfboard

Hi!

Use the user's guide to configure the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit)... The setting is under the LAN tab. Refer to page 41 of the guide for more information - or just consult me!

I cannot find my user id and password.

Can you please tell us the exact model number of your device? You can find it at the bottom of the device itself.

Just in case you haven't tried it yet, Motorola's default username is admin and default password is motorola.

If the defaults are not working and you can't remember your password, you need to reset the device by holding down the reset button for 20 seconds at the back of it then turn off for 10 seconds. It should be back to defaults which is admin and motorola for username and password.

I cant find the password

In order to get your router back to the original settings, you must push in the reset button (usually on the back of the router) for somewhere between 10 and 30 seconds depending on the router. You may need a pin or something small to push in the button, because it can be recessed. Once you have reset the router, the username and password will be changed to the defaults, admin and password, respectively. One thing you must remember is that resetting the router will change all of the router settings back to the factory settings. This means you will lose all of the changes you made since you got the router. Make sure to write down any things you've changed, so you can change them back after the reset. Also, I recommend updating to the latest firmware after the reset.

How do I set the password?

In order to get your router back to the original settings, you must push in the reset button (usually on the back of the router) for somewhere between 10 and 30 seconds depending on the router.

Mine didnt come with a power pack

This is a standard 12 volt power block. you can get one at best buy or Radio Shack. Take the router with you. They will be able to help. You could also take it back to where you bought it and explain to them that it didnt come with a power supply. Hope this helps

I am trying to connect

NOTE: [] & "button(s)" represent features on the remote controller. {} & "key(s)" represent features in on-screen menus.
=======================================================================

ROUTER INFO: WPS is on the SBG901.


BLU-RAY DISK PLAYER: You did not mention the model # of the Samsung Blu-ray disc player, so this information is somewhat generalized.

PREREQUISITE: Once you have attached Samsung's proprietary wireless adapter to that Blu-ray player, have connected that Blu-ray player to your TV, & have powered on that router & Blu-ray player & TV, access that Blu-ray player's initial settings menu.

STEP ONE: From the Home menu, press ?? buttons to select "Settings." Press [ENTER].
STEP TWO: Press ?? buttons to select "Network." Press [ENTER].
STEP THREE: Press ?? buttons to select "Network Settings." Press [ENTER].
STEP FOUR: Press ?? buttons to select "Network Type." Press [ENTER].
STEP FIVE: Instead of using the the "PBC (WPS)" selection, press ?? buttons to choose the "Wireless" selection & press [ENTER].
STEP SIX: Press ?? buttons to select "Internet Protocol Setup." Press [ENTER].
STEP SEVEN: Press ?? buttons to select "Auto" or "Manual." Press [ENTER].

IF SETTING UP WIRELESS CONNECTIVITY VIA AUTO NETWORK SEARCH: If you selected "Auto," press the ? button to go to "Access Point Selection." Press [ENTER]. Upon searching for available wireless networks, it will display those choices in a list.
A.) In the list of networks, press ?? buttons to select your network. Press [ENTER].
B.) IF "PIN/Security" DOES NOT POP UP, THEN SKIP THIS STEP; otherwise, press ?? buttons to select PIN or Security (Security Key--the usual option), & enter your network's Pass Phrase on the Security screen. (This Pass Phrase would be what you would use to access the network. IT SHOULD NOT THE PASSWORD WITH WHICH YOU SET UP YOUR ROUTER!)
Press number buttons on the remote to enter Pass Phrase numbers OR use arrow buttons on the remote to move from key to key in the Security Key screen. Change the type of on-screen accessible characters by moving to the on-screen {a/A/1/?} key & pressing [ENTER] on the remote. (The character set changes with each press of [ENTER]. Once displayed on the screen, you can enter a letter by pressing the number button on the remote which corresponds to that letter key. Pressing that button repeatedly changes the letter. You can move to {Delete} & press [ENTER] in order to remove the last character entered. You can move to {Clear} & press [ENTER] to clear all entered characters (or just press the red [(A)] button. When done, press the yellow [(C)} button (or the {Done} key followed by [ENTER]).
C.) WAIT UNTIL THE CONNECTION CONFIRMATION MESSAGE DISPLAYS & THEN PRESS [ENTER]. You're back at the Network Selection menu.
D.) To test the connection, press ? to select "Network Test." Press [ENTER].

IF YOU REQUIRE ASSISTANCE WITH SETTING UP THE WIRELESS NETWORK CONNECTION MANUALLY, I SUGGEST THAT YOU READ THE MANUAL (http://www.samsung.com/us/support/).
