I am trying to reset the default log in on linksys befsr41 router

Log in to your NETGEAR router by browsing to http://www.routerlogin.net/ or http://www.routerlogin.com./ Enter the username (admin) and password. By default, the password is password or 1234 unless it has already been changed. If you cannot log into your router: Unfortunately, there is no way to recover a lost or forgotten password from a router or access point; you will need to reset the device to factory defaults. However, once the device is reset to factory defaults, you can use the default username ("admin") and password (either "password" or "1234" depending on your router) to reconfigure your router settings. If it is not visible, you can change your wireless passphrase; however, changing the passphrase will cause you to lose your wireless connection. Connect your computer to the router with an Ethernet cable before entering a new passphrase into the text box and Clicking Apply. If there is a small hole in the front or back of the router push a hair pin in to reset to factory settings.

Try admin in user anme and admin in password.
If that doesn't work then try admin in only password, leave the user name blank.
If that doesn't work then try some different passwords that you use often.
If nothing is working then you will need to reset the router.
Once you reset the router, you will lose all the settings on the router and you will need to reconfigure it.

See How to setup Linksys router

Not sure if you just want to expand the amont of computer you can connect to it or the wireless range but I would setup the BEFSR41:

• Disable DHCP
• Set an address out of the DHCP scope of the WRT54G
• Connect them LAN to LAN if not use xover to connect them

You need to setup the router after doing the upgrade.

Hi
Warning This will RESET to FACTORY DEFAULT

There should be reset hole with a button in it if you press this and hold it in. count to ten then release, this will reset it to factory default setting.

If you are not wanting factory reset you will have to login to the linksys the default IP is 192.168.1.1 login name admin password admin.. that is you havent change it. and from there you can find your settings and change them..

Good Luck

Try to access the router's setup page and change the MTU settings. The default address for the Befsr41 is 192.168.1.1. Here are instructions:

1) Use a computer wired to the router.
2) Launch a browser and type in 192.168.1.1, leave the username blank and the password is admin or the password you have set when you first configured the router.
3) Click on the Advanced tab then click on the Filters tab. On the bottom part you have MTU.
4) Enable that option and set MTU to 1500, 1400, 1300 (for cable ISP connection) and 1492 (for DSL connection) and check if it will work.
4) If that does not work, you can try upgrading the firmware of your router.

To hook up your lynksys router plug your internet connection wire in the back of the router where it says linksys then run another cable from the slot one to your computer, when you first get your router your username and password will be admin type your IP address into your internets browser window and use your username and password to log onto your linksys router, choose your router settings and there you have it,
Good luck

Try reseting it, to do this hold the reset button on the back for 30 seconds, this will reset the router to factory defaults and your username and password will be admin.
