Well look at the back of the Modem, there is a little hole in it, it's reset switch, use a pin or something to reset it. It'll be factory reset.

like all said it will solve the problem , ie will b set to default UN and PW(admin)

BUT once u reset to get net access u will need to config ur router again

[UR ISP provider should have provided u with a another UN and PW



eg on how 2 config

Can you not just request your brother to enable the device MAC on the router configuration again.

My last modem was the same one. I think the reset button (not necessarily a hole) is under the modem. I can check it and will report on monday, if you can wait. After you reset you will need to manually configure it to access net.

Now try this trick found from another forum:

Turn the modem upside down and first thing you'd notice are the many air vent in the shape of small squares. For the unroaming eyes it maybe a little difficult to spot it at first but if you look towards the left side (just below the WLAN light/that would be on the right side of the modem when its upright) there is a small pin sized circular hole at the edge which is the reset button. Use a pin and make sure the modem is turned on while resetting. Simple poke it with a pin and your modem should be reset to its default settings after it reboots.
