try the password "admin"
If not then try http://www.consume.net/mhonarc/thenet/msg03476.html
Might help, not sure though cause I'm thick when it comes to routers
[Edited] Just to add to search for the word password and you'll find a few links about resetting the password.

Hi folks, just a query about the generic Efficient Networks 'BT' Black ADSL routers.
I am well versed in flashing/reprogramming these puppies, but only in their full 5861 setup, not the crippled BT Firmware versions. I have a spare one of the boxes and want to reflash it to a full EN5861 box, but the bugger seems to have a generic password to access properly. I have checked a couple of our ones too and the seems to be protected also. Does anyone know what the password could possibly be?
Cheers,
Nick

Can't you just tftp the new firmware over after hitting the hard-reset ( small hole on the underside ) ?
I have a 'crippled' 5861 at home that i'd like to use but couldn't get the thing to upload the new firmware...
Any pointers gratefully received

Can't remember as it was some time ago tht I last tried, but I believe that I had the same problem as you with the BT one. I think that the password is going to hold the key to me doing this.....
I had a thing from demon a while back about a firmware upgrade for these boxes. If I can dig it out and download the update, I could try taking the file(s) apart and see if there is anything usefull in there....

Boooo, sorry it was not a file download version, you have to connect with certain credentials then the router is checked and updated if necessary with the newest crippled firmware.
