I haven't used the router in a long while and thus I've forgotten the login name and password. I've tried the defaults and none of those work. The reset button also doesn't work because the version of DDWRT that is on it, the reset button didn't work yet. Is there any way to reset it without access to the gui or a button?

Thanks,
Caleb.

Only telnet or SSH, if it is enabled. Or serial

Are there any guides for resetting through serial? Or even through Telnet/SSH if I can go that route.

Telnet should work, it's enabled by default: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Telnet/SSH_and_the_Command_Line
