[ Express] SMC8014W-G login details?

Set the DNS on your systems ... that will eliminate DNS relaying through the router altogether. As it is, your system makes a DNS request from your router, and your router in turn makes a DNS request from Rogers. If you put the DNS in your systems, then you directly make a DNS request.

Thanks, it worked.

Hey i was just wondering because i have that same modem and i cant find away for me to catch the wireless signal from it so i was hoping could tell some way to get my wireless up and running

Default SSID (network name/ ID) is WLAN. You should have no problem to see it for it be the strongest WiFi signal visible around.

cheers TJ

i have the same modem and i was wondering if any one knew the real admins login details??????????????????????????

reply to sunnyb89
I'm using the same modem from Rogers.

The technician turned the signal on and dropped off the modem. I have a fully functioning wireless signal called the default WLAN. I want to secure it.

I'm at the 192.168.0.1 login page, but I have no USERNAME or PASSWORD for the modem. What is the default for this modem?

I tried cusadmin/password like somebody above suggested, but it's invalid. Everything I have tried is invalid.

Help?

I don't use that modem but Rogers has a Help page here FWIW:

Support for the SMC8014W-G Broadband Gateway when used as part of Rogers Home Networking Service.

The manual says

Username: mso
Password: msopassword

...but that didn't work for me. This one did work though:

Username: mso
Password: cxf1rst!

It worked after a hard reset and out of the box too.

How do you reset the password on this router??

I would like to configure it to what i know works best..

I would also like to change the DNS from my ISPs crappy DNS to 4.2.2.2 (Which is much better -- Might load pages faster)

All passwords listed here dont work.... How do you reset it?? (JUST THE PASSWORD (OR HOW WOULD I ENTER SAY 4.2.2.2 IN MY COMPUTER??))

Right now for DNS server,it has its own IP listed which is BS!!

See this thread for reference> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22128393

You can't reset JUST the password if you've forgotten or don't know. You'd have to do a hard reset which is holding the reset button down for 10 seconds (I think it was that long).

But this will erase everything and restore your device to factory defaults. After you do that, both of the default logins should work. I'd recommend securing your router's Wireless and other settings afterward.

I don't know about the DNS, but there's probably a setting in there somewhere. Don't know because I set mine up to be a bridge/modem.

Yup i have since gotton a NEW smc router (Couldnt get on the net w/the last one)

I have set 2 different DNS servers and it seems to be OK (Still slightly slower than my PCX5000 was sometimes)

Ah well......
