Actiontec 54 Mbps Wireless Game Adapter User Manual

The Configuration Utility won’t recognize my password.

The password is case-sensitive. Make sure you are using the correct case(s) when entering the password.

If you forget your password, push the Adapter’s Reset button for 15 seconds. This will reset the user name and password to the default settings (user name: admin; password: admin); however, all the Adapter’s settings will be reset to the factory defaults as well.

The changes made through the Configuration Utility are not active.

Click Refresh in the Configuration Utility. If the new settings aren’t displayed, unplug the Power cord from the Adapter, then plug it back in again. Click the Refresh button again.
