Fucking stupid dsl modem...

and its fucking stupid user manual.

So I got into BW hoping to get some games, but then guess what I realized: I renewed my dsl modem. So I had to go into a different procedure to forward ports from this new modem to be able to host games.

No problem, I have been forwarding ports since god knows when. I just need to log in to my default gateway and configure my port settings. I entered the address of my default gateway, started reading the user manual to get the password of the default gateway.

Here is the stupid thing: THE FUCKING STUPID PASSWORD IN THE USER MANUAL IS FUCKING WRONG!!!

For the last half an hour, I've been sitting here, trying different passwords into my default gateway so that stupid piece of shit lets me in and I can forward my ports and host my games. But hell no. We definitely shouldn't let a Turkish motherfucker forward ports and host BW games. Instead, this motherfucker has to join games and cross fingers in order not to get kicked or should go and play with AI who can only mass hydras in ZvZ or do the same timing that hits before 3 hatch muta in TvZ or mass firebats when I decide to 2 hatch muta instead of 3 and do whatever in PvZ (AI even put a nexus at the ramp on destination). No. This motherfucker definitely shouldn't play against anything who can also speak and eat.

Fuck my ISP and their user manuals.

Is there a little hard reset button on the modem that you can hold down using a paperclip or something? That might reset it to its defaults. Of course always try "admin" as the username with a blank password.

I'm probably going to call my ISP tomorrow about that. And my modem (ZyXEL P-660W-T1 v3) doesn't have a username and the following passwords don't work:

blank password
admin
1234
ttnet (name of my ISP, which is the password according to my ISP's user manual).

And I'm not going to use the reset thing as it will reset the whole thing including my username and password and I lose the whole internet access.

is there a sticker on the back or under it with (usually) numbers on it often that is the default password, companies don't put passwords in manuals makes their modems too easy to fuck with if they all have the same password. And it's easier to print up stickers and slap them on the modems then to print out unique manuals all the time.

No, there are just bar codes, default wireless username and password, my mac address and some other useless bullcrap.

I called the tech support guys and they said that 1234 or ttnet are 2 default passwords (both of which don't work). The guy said that I should reset with a needle and get my default password as isp guys who came down to set up my modem probably changed the password to some random thing while I was at internship. Here is another thing: My little brother who shares a brain that is capped at 25 iq with 4 other people was the only person at the house along with my dad so I have no chance of learning the new password from them.

Do you know why?

Because both are incapable of remembering passwords that are set by them. Plus, my father is completely illiterate about anything that needs to be plugged in order to work. My brother recently forgot the login password of his computer and I have to remind the login password of my computer to my father, who set my login password in the first place and regularly tells me to change it once he decides that it's not simple enough for him (my password is his birthday in ddmm format and he made me create a new profile for him in my computer because he can't remember my password).

And I can't reset my modem with a needle because I have the risk of losing all my internet access, which can't be recovered until tech support guys come to my house again. It took 4 or 5 days after the call last time and I need my internet access during that time because I have to write a Summer Practice report.

Dude, this is perfect. Now, can you host games against me, a d+ level noob, in fish server (because iccup is in maintenance) and play ZvZs against me? It's the only matchup I know both what to do and how to do.

No, not even a bit. This says that I should enter my default password, which is 1234 and then I will be able to see my menus. But it doesn't even accept my default password or anything that my password has the probability of being changed into.

Have you tried unplugging and replugging back in your dsl modem?



(Honestly sorry I couldn't give decent advice, just someone had to make the joke.)

Unfortunately, I even tried that.

Now I'm in fish server, trying to figure out how i can avoid downloading maps that I have. People kick me when I try to download the map I have.
