Tried several times to reset the above router to default and the web page standard password admin/admin would not work, did manage to get to a user page using user/user but had no admin permissions. 


I found that I could log in to an SSH session using the default IP and admin/admin and after typing 'help' received a list of the commands available. 


An admin password reset is then possible which then gives full access to the web config.


Hope this helps someone else.

Default password on those is often the last 6 characters of the MAC address.

I also tried combinations of the last 4-5 & 6 mac address characters, upper and lower case plus every damned password combo known to man with no success. I only tried the SSH option as an afterthought.
