MY UNIDEN 4 CAMERA HOME SECURITY CAMERS MONITOR HAS LOCKED ME OUT AS I CANT RECALL MY PASSWORD

If you have forgotten your password for your Uniden 4 camera home security system and are unable to access the system, there are a few steps you can try to reset the password:
  1. Check the user manual for your specific system model to see if it provides instructions for resetting the password. Some Uniden security systems may have a reset button or a specific reset procedure outlined in the manual.
  2. Contact Uniden customer support for assistance. They may be able to provide you with a default password or walk you through the process of resetting the password.
  3. If the above steps do not work, it may be necessary to perform a factory reset on the system. This will erase all settings, including the password, and restore the system to its default configuration. To perform a factory reset, you may need to locate the reset button on the system or follow a specific reset procedure outlined in the user manual.
It is important to note that performing a factory reset will erase all settings and may require you to set up the system again from scratch. It is recommended to carefully consider this option and, if possible, try the other steps first.

Restore my Mx-b382 setting to factory setting

Probably you can access the settings through the operation screen on the machine.
There you may find this reset setting.

I found a manual here:
https://www.sharp.eu/cps/rde/xbcr/documents/documents/om/34_ppc/MXB382-SC_OM_Start-Guide_GB.pdf

There in it says:
Factory default passwords
When accessing the system settings, the administrator password is required to log in with administrator rights. The system settings can be configured in the Web pages as well as on the operation panel. To access the system settings using the Web pages, a password is also required.
Factory default administrator password is “admin”
Store a new administrator password as soon as the machine is installed.
Once the administrator password has been changed, the new password is required to restore the factory default password. Take care to remember the new password.
Factory default passwords (Web pages)
There are two factory default accounts: "Administrator" and "User". A person who logs in as an "Administrator" can configure all settings in the Web pages. In addition, an administrator can restrict access to other settings by enabling "User" accounts.
Default:
users with password users
admin with password admin

If this has been changed when the machine was installed you have a challenge to find out who changed it and if this person still knows it.

I have forgotten my wireless password - how can I

You cannot easily retrieve a wireless password. You can reset it by holding down the "reset" button on the back of the router for 10 seconds. This should remove/reset all passwords and restore factory default settings.

If you have forgotten your password all you have left to do is to reset the device back to factory default. That's usually done by taking a pin and poking a hole in the back labeled 'Reset' for anywhere from 1 to 5 seconds.

Need password to my netgear router n 300

what is the model #?
Most netgear routers default to a username of "admin" and password is either " admin ", "password" or it is just blank. Those are the defaults unless someone changed it.
If you cant get in you can hold down the reset button on the back for 30 seconds (while it is plugged into power) and that will set it back to factory default settings then one of the above should work.
If this was a help please give me 4 thumbs up as I am trying to build up my rep on this site!

Its because it got reset accidently and then how would i restore it back again. or can it still be restored back??

Sorry you will have to set it up again

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.

hope this helps

Cant remember my netgear network key

Reset and Restore the NETGEAR device to Factory Default Settings Problem: var js_3;function initPsDisplay(){js_3 = new PsDisplay({"info":{"controller_name":"PsDisplay","name":"PsDisplay_3","type":"FormField","w_id":3},"attrs":{"label":"","tabindex":"","field_name":"description","cf_id":"","table":"answers","highlight":0},"js":null});js_3.init();}YAHOO.util.Event.onDOMReady(initPsDisplay); Symptoms:
  • Forgotten/lost password to log into the NETGEAR device
  • Cannot access the NETGEAR device web interface

Workaround: var js_4;function initPsDisplay(){js_4 = new PsDisplay({"info":{"controller_name":"PsDisplay","name":"PsDisplay_4","type":"FormField","w_id":4},"attrs":{"label":"","tabindex":"","field_name":"solution","cf_id":"","table":"answers","highlight":0},"js":null});js_4.init();}YAHOO.util.Event.onDOMReady(initPsDisplay); Resolution:
If you have changed the default password and have forgotten the password, you may need to reset the NETGEAR device to factory default settings.

When a NETGEAR device resets, it goes back to the state when it was new — all information that was entered by hand is lost! Examples are critical things you need to get online, such as ISP username, ISP password, IP addresses, wireless security keys, and ports and services that were opened. It all needs to be re-entered.
So, have your ISP information before resetting the router.
Naturally, if you moved to a new city, or if you bought a used router, the old information in the router may not be of use to you. Contact your ISP if you can't connect any computer directly to the Internet.

Reset for most routers with a reset button on the rear panel
Write down configuration information such as IP addresses, security keys, opened ports and services, etc., that you modified. (The default username is admin and the password is either password or 1234. Try these before resetting the router.)
  1. Press the reset button on the back until the test light blinks. This takes about 10 seconds. (To avoid accidental resets, the small button is recessed. Use a pen or paperclip to access it.)
  2. Release the button.
  3. Wait for the router to reboot.
  4. Log in with the default password. If the router configuration was not cleared, try these additional steps AFTER the router has finished rebooting.
  5. Unplug the router's power.
  6. Press and hold the reset button. While the button is held down, reconnect router's power.
  7. Continue to hold the reset button for 20 seconds after reconnecting the power.
  8. Wait for the router to reboot.
  9. Log in with the default password.

Hope this helps.......

God Bless.......
