Router default password mix-up? When Franklin Winters tried to set up his Asanté Cable/DSL Router FR3004 Rev.D, a "Login incorrect" error message appeared when he entered the default password: admin. "After consulting my local reseller, we found out that the password had somehow been changed. The correct (and working) password was jameson." How did he discover the correct password? Franklin replies: "My local reseller (in the Netherlands) turned to his Asanté dealer for help on my problem. As it turned out, they had heard of this problem and suggested the 'jameson' password."

MYOB print invoice glitch confirmed A MacFixIt reader describes a problem with MYOB 4.7.3 (accounting software): "We have our preferences set to automatically print invoices when they are recorded. We often record Orders for customers when waiting for some items to arrive for our suppliers. Sometimes we print these orders as reminders. Other times we do not. In the past, whenever we changed a recorded Order to an Invoice, the Invoice would automatically print. In the 4.7.3 version, it is recorded as an Invoice but does not print." MYOB support confirmed the "situation" and said that they "have escalated the problem to our Quality Control Department and will notify you when it is fixed."
