Folks,
does anyone know the default passwd for a ponte2 enabled f*nera? I got one from a friend of mine and I wanna get rid of ponte2 and install dd-wrt. unfortunately I find no way to access the web-interface nor ssh - I just don't know the passwd. hard-reset does not work (no way to get access with "root" and "admin") and redboot isn't enabled either.

Problem solved! You just have to reset the f*nera properly which is a real mess with the default f*n firmware on it. instead of holding down the reset button once for approx. 30 secs, you have to go through, what I'd call it, a procedure! _________________ 7x La Fonera 2100, 1x NanoStation2 Loco

I think ppl would appreciate it if you would post the procedure.

Sure, if you're interested..
First of all, to check connectivity, I'd recommend to ping 169.254.255.1 and set up your connection settings accordingly.
1. Fully boot the f*nera
2. Press the reset button until LAN and WLAN LEDs went dark (approx. 1 min)
3. Release the reset button
4. Wait until LAN LED shows up again
5. Press the reset button another time for about 15 secs
6. Power cycle and let the f*nera reboot
That's it! The f*nera is reseted to f*n factory defaults afterwards! Much more of a procedure instead of the common holding 30 secs the reset button from my perspective! _________________ 7x La Fonera 2100, 1x NanoStation2 Loco
