Power button seems to have failed

Hello Jackie,

The first thing that you should do is completely disconnect your Allegro from power for at least 30 seconds, then reconnect it to power and see if it will power on.
If the problem persists, consider moving the device to a different plug-in on a different wall of your home, and again see if the device will power on. If still your device will not power on, plug a different device into the outlet (VCR, DVD, other TV etc) to ensure that there IS power to that outlet.
If after all this your device still doesn't power on, but a different device does, consider visiting an electronic repair shop as it would seem your device has failed.

Hope this helps,
Best regards

Pop the back off, unplug the battery for about 30 seconds, plug the battery back in, put the back cover back on. You will find it will start no problem.

The only way to reset password to default if the existing one has been forgotten is to do a full factory reset.
On the back of the router there is a small hole that will say "Reset" above it. Using a pen, paperclip, or other small item. press and hold the button for 30 seconds while it is plugged in.
Disconnect power for 30 seconds and plug the router back in.
This is usually sufficient to reset the device back to defaults. If this method fails repeat the above but after plugging power in for the last time Hold down the reset button for another 30 seconds.
Make sure you count slow, as holding the button too long is better then not holding it long enough.

Her is a possible solution:
1. Plug into the original charger, hold the power down for a full 30 seconds, release. Let charge in this state for 12 hours.
2. Lease the device plugged into the charger, while you have the device plugged into power, press the power button for a full 40 seconds, release. Wait for 5 seconds and then press and release the power button. Did the device wake up? No, continue to step 3.
3. Plug the device into another charger, if you do not have an charger from another phone go to Staples or Radio Shack pick up a new Kindle or Universal charger, make sure you can return the charger.
4. Plug the Kindle into the new or alternate charger. Hold down the power button for 30 seconds release. Let charge for 12 full hours.
5. Unplug the Kindle from the charger.
6. Press the power button for 40 seconds - time it. Release the power button, wait for 5 seconds, then press and release the power button. The Kindle should wake up. If not, proceed to step 7.
7. If you can not wake up the Kindle from a 'hard reset' the Contact Amazon directly for a replacement.

Remove the Power Cord, then press and hold the power button for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, plug the cord back in and press the power button. If it works, you had a Static Charge Buildup that had to be released.

Remove the Power Cord, Open the Case and remove one of thememory chips. Set the chip aside then try rebooting the computer. If it boots, then you know the memory chip you set aside is bad so mark an x onit with an ink pen. If it fails to boot then move the chip to the nextmemory slot and try rebooting. If it fails take the chip out and set itaside, then put the other chip in and try booting it in both slots. If itboots, just to verify that the chip set aside is bad, mark an x on it and putit into the open memory chip slot and try booting.If the above two steps fail, pull the main power plug that comes out of the power supply and plugs into the motherboard. The end that plugs into the motherboard is probably about two inches long, Grab the release latch on it and press it while pulling up to unplug it. Wait 30 seconds then plug it back into the motherboard. Push it back in firmly.
Try turning on the system.

Try this
unplug plug the power cord and remove the battery and hold the power button for 45 seconds,Then reinstall the battery and and try to start the computer,

if it fails to start
unplug plug the power cord and remove the battery and hold the power button for 45 seconds and
remove the memory and any usb devices that may be plugged in,then start it,

If it starts

Allow it to load completely and then shut it down and install one memory stick and restart, if all is well after if loads completely, shut down again and install the other memory stick and restart, if all is well again wait until it loads completely and then plug in and allow to load each of the usb devices you may have

Perform a D-Link Router reset

Step 1 Locate the reset pinhole on the back of the unit.

Step 2 With the unit powered on, press and hold the Reset button.

Step 3 Hold the Reset button for about 10 seconds.

Step 4 Release the Reset button.

Step 5 The unit will reboot. Allow 20-30 seconds before reconnecting.

Step 6 The device is now at factory defaults.

Note: Do not recycle power during the reset procedure. The default user name for most D-Link devices is admin and the password is left blank.
When it says hold for about 10 seconds, don't hold for more than ten seconds or the procedure will likely fail, if ten seconds doesn't work try 5 seconds.

Then:

Shutdown your PC. Unplug the power from the router and the cable modem.
Wait 30 sec. then plug in the power to the cable modem, wait 30 sec. then plug the power to the router. Wait till you have "Internet" light then restart your PC. The PC should pick up an IP address and you should be able to get on-line. This is if you have a cable service provider. If you have DSL, the router needs to be configured with PPOe.

There is another way to reset the router called hard reset..

you need to hold down the reset button for 45 seconds while its turned ON and don't let it go.
After first 15 seconds, take the power cable out but still keep holding down the reset.
After second 15 seconds, insert the power cable back in but still keep holding down reset.
After last 15 seconds, release reset and turn off the router for 30 seconds.

0-15 = Power ON, Reset button Pressed in
15-30= Power OFF, Reset still Pressed in
30-45= Power ON, Reset still Pressed in

If it still doesn't work then you got a bad router, can't be fixed. :-(
