What's the default password for a Cisco 1841 router when it has been set by AT&T?

Question

I just got a T1 from AT&T today. They gave me a Cisco 1841 router, but didn't hook it up. I hooked it up, and I can telnet into the router. It says "Press RETURN to get started." I press RETURN. Then it says the following:

_ _
| | ___ | |
__ _| |_( _ ) | |_
/ _` | __/ _ \/\ __|
| (_| | || (_> < |_
\__,_|\__\___/\/\__|

Answer 1

To perform a password recovery do not telnet to the router. Log into the console port and do this:



-Start a terminal session with the router.

-physically reboot the router while consoled in

-when the router is starting to reboot, hit the "break" key (usually upper-right of the keyboard) repeatedly until you're taken to ROMMON mode.

-type "confreg 0x2142"

-type "reset"







Now enter "no" for the question about using the setup wizard, then enter the following commands:



---------------------------------

en

copy start run

conf t

config-register 0x2102

no enable password

no enable secret

exit

wr

-------------------------------



You now have the same configuration you had on it before, except you've deleted the enable and enable secret passwords. Note, if you want to telnet into it, you'll have to set an enable password or secret of your choice. Also add a password of some sort to the VTY lines, or AAA if that's how you're planning to have it set up.



If you're wondering, with the above commands you basically told the router to avoid loading its configuration file when you rebooted it (so it didn't load a password), then you loaded the configuration file after you logged in with full admin rights, then you used those admin rights to delete the passwords you didn't know, and saved the configuration.
