Question

How to access ROUTER when RESET is already made?

Apr 24, 2019 12:05PM PDT

I have an old router if i can say, that is made already reset to it and default usernames and passwords doesn't work. It has been functional somewhere else before but I haven't used before in my house and my internet. I have tried a lot of combinations, i don't have the manual of the router, the stick notes of the router dont have information. Even the IP I found in cmd ipconfig 192.168.2.1 wasn't correct. The right one was 192.168.2.1:8080 that i found with Advanced IP program and I believe is the right one since a pop up windows comes when i put this IP with option to login with username and password. Now how to login when the situation is that to router is made reset and the default username and password doesn't work?

Model is Billion Router BiPac 7700N R4. What does it mean having DDWRT and in what cases happens. And the most important question, is it any chance to access the router?

And everthing tells me someone installed DDWRT. Google about DDWRT default name and password to see what are those defaults.

Post in the DDWRT forums asking about how to get your router back to stock form if DDWRT is too challenging. I know that I won't support such a router without a contract. And that contract is usually enough money to replace a router that can't do what the client needs it to do.
