Password Recovery for Cisco 677
I got a Cisco 677 ADSL router from my local telco. The router does not come with any documentation and is password protected. I downloaded the documentation from Cisco web site. With the documentation, I know how the pins works, and knowing how to use a terminal program to access the router using a serial to RJ45 cable.
The only remaining is the password. I found the password recovery session for Cisco 600 series, but it is password protect for registered user only. I am not able to register since I am not buying the router and I am not a CCIE.
Can any one help and tell me how to recover or reset the password for Cisco ADSL 677 router?

wk,
If you have performed the erase of the current config, you should be able to make the enable password whatever you want. I believe these little guys authenticate by username and priviledge assigned to that user, instead of the classic Cisco "exec" and "enable" modes.
Command for setting the enable pass is:
set password enable <new-password>
Also, they have a nifty little web interface - turned on by the command:
set web enabled
Then just browse to the IP of the router.
BTW, CBOS stands for Cisco Broadband Operating System.

Thank you.

Up to now, I can access the CBOS of my router. But can you tell me how to recover the enable mode password? Since some setting feature need to be done in the enable mode.
Once again, thank you very much for your kind attention.
