Have you tried the default login?

password: password

 

otherwise reset router and the default should work then

      thank you.  Now I just need to figure out how to get the latest FW (img file) for satellites as file from dropbox won't upload.

        Make sure you are getting the right file for the right model number.. if it is for Satellite it ends in S.. example RBS50 or RBS40.

        Otherwise contact support or let a MOD know to get the correct file like AmitR or DarrenM
