Blank password bypass
« on: January 16, 2014, 07:09:16 PM »

I changed my password to this router and was successful.  Today, I made a small change to the router; I renamed the gateway name and the router reset after saving changes.  I assumed everything was good for a while until I logged in a week later and could not authenticate.  I was frustrated and could not understand what was happening.  Then I stopped and pressed the Enter key without entering a password.....not good.  I then changed the password again and everything was fine.

3rd Party Security Software Configurations
  • Turn off all anti virus and firewall programs on PC while testing. 3rd party firewalls are not generally needed when using routers as they are effective on blocking malicious inbound traffic.
  • Turn off all devices accept for one wired LAN PC while testing.
  • Disable any downloading client software managers, i.e. Torrents or similar.


Web Browser Configurations
What browser are you using?
Try Opera or FF? If IE 8, 9, 10 or 11, set compatibility mode and test again.

Disable any security browser Add-ons like No Script and Ad-Block or configure them to allow All Pages when connected to the router.
Clear all browser caches.
Try turning off these features in Chrome:
Top right corner, little bars for options > Settings > Settings (on left) > Show advanced settings.
