Zyxel 642R Router

I have been screwing around with this thing all morning. Is anyone familiar with setting this device up? I have checked all the doc's but I cannot even get to the first screen.

Thanks!

You've got to have a serial cable hooked up to the serial port. The management interface is via the serial port, a console based interface. You can use Hypterterm (among others) to get in. The default password is 1234 (see page 2-5 of the manual located <A HREF="http://www.zyxel.com/product/dsl/p642s.htm" target="_new">Here</A>)

I found the problem. I was doing all of that but I when I got there I was prompted by "wrong password". I finally got instructions on how to reset the password and all is good. Thanks!
