- MRI ADSL Router Problem
- Posted by James Weir on July 17th, 2003
I have been using my MRI ADSL Router on Demon ADSL for quite some
time, however last night following a power cut my router does not seem
to be working correctly. The ADSL and LAN lights are both on, and the
DHCP is still working ok but I cannot access the System configuration
pages as the 'admin' default password is not being accepted, and the
internet itself is not working. I have tried hitting the reset but
the same occurred.
Can anyone help?
James.

I presume it was not on a surge protection circuit? Power resumption is
often more dangerous than power cuts (which is why all electronic equipment
should be switched off if you have a cut).
Re reset - I would disconnect the phone line & power down the box for a few
hours (overnight if you can wait) and try the factory reset again. If that
fails then I think you already know the answer... and buy a surge
protector - one with a combined telephone protection circuit would be good
belt'n'bracers solution.

Sorry to follow myself up - but does the MRI have a RS232 connection? I had
router that got itself into a similar state and I managed to nurse it back
to life that way (obviously the mini-webserver had got itself in a knot)....

Hi,
No it doesn't have an RS-232 but unplugging everything overnight and
resetting again did the trick, thanks for your help.
