HAVE SYLVANIA TABLET USER NAME GOOD BUT CAN'T REMEMBER PASSWORD TO ACCESS. TRIED HINT STILL WRONG. HOW CAN RESET

Login Hints User Name= 3-4 ID
Password = Full SSN (no slashes/dashes/spaces) on Initial log in or reset, or enter password you setup, or click forgot password

There maybe another way around this, but it sounds like you are going to have to do a system reset-which is a bummer, as with a computer, if you didn't do any backups. I take it your tablet doesn't have a "hint" as to what your password might be? Like with computers, some tablets, when you set them up to be password protected, ask you for a "hint" to use in case you ever forget your password. Other than knowing a "hacker" and I'm not trying to be rude, if you can't remember, you may end-up having to go back to when you first got it! AWWWWGH! Passwords. Good luck.

Try logging in as "ADMINSTRATOR". Unless you set a different password, that account probably does not have one. From there, you can reset any other user password, including the account you would usually use.

Resetting the System Password
If you forget your password and still cannot remember it after seeing your hint, click the I still can't remember the password link.
The Reset System Password page opens.
To obtain access to your system:
1. In the System Key field enter the 10-digit system key located on the bottom of your gateway.
2. In the Enter New Password field, enter a new system password. In the Confirm New Password field, reenter the system password.
3. In the Enter Your Hint field, enter an appropriate hint as described under "Setting a System Password" .
4. Click Submit.
Setting a System Password
Setting a system password protects your gateway settings from being modified or changed by someone who has not been given permission to do so. After setting a system password, you will be required to enter it whenever you attempt to access a gateway configuration page - for example, if you try to change the gateway's broadband connection settings or upgrade the gateway software. If a password has not been set,
a reminder notice is displayed when you attempt to access pages where settings can be changed.
To set your system password:
• Open a Web browser and access the gateway user interface by entering
http://gateway.2wire.net.
• Click the System tab.
• Click the System Password link in the System area of the Network at a Glance panel to open the Edit
System Password page.
1. In the Settings panel, click the Enable checkbox.
2. In the Enter New Password field, enter your password.
3. In the Confirm New Password field, re-enter your password.
4. Optional: In the Enter Your Hint field, enter a hint.
A hint is a word, phrase, or question that reminds you what the password is. There is an I forgot the password link on the password entry page. When you click this link, it shows you your hint and allows you to enter your password.
5. Click SAVE.

Really try hard to remember. Options are not good.
