How to gain admin privileges on D-Link router if my isp is not allowing me to do so?
- by Fischer
So I switched to new ISP yesterday, they gave me a D-Link router, can't use my old router. I want to change the wireless password, went to 192.168.1.1, I can login with the the username and password user user, but not as admin.
On the catalog it says that the default username and password are admin admin, tried that didn't work. Tried admin and no pass, tried many combinations, none worked.
I asked some other users and they said that the isp is blocking the users from logging in as admins, and blocking the reset button, and said that there's a hack where you do something like:
cmd telnet "router ip" and do something like dumpcfg.
Could you please give a better explanation on how to gain admin privileges on your own router if your isp is not letting you do so by default?
