I guess I did something dumb. I gave the router (2348-4) a strong password with symbols and something isn't jiving. The password is accepted, but before anything can be done in the web interface I get promted to reenter the password again over and over. My question is since I can telnet into the unit withsaid password with no problem, how do I go about changing it from the command line?

Also I've tryed to do a factory default, and cannot get it to run. The password promt haults action every time.

Any help what commant to type proceedure to give a different password from the command line would be great.

thank
