RV160 router replace lost password without losing config

[boucher3717]

Is there a way to replace the master password without losing the configuration setup. Have tried using the command console and Patch telnet software however nothing happens after hard rebooting router and then using the Break command other than system says complete but then command entry is frozen. Does this router use same recovery technic as cisco 4000 series ?

I should say the master password has been lost.

you need to reset the RV160 router.  create a backup file first after resetting you can restore the same.

4000 Series routers passwords can be cracked from ROMMN mode. RV160 Supports very less CLI as I know.

How to Reset the Cisco RV130 Router To Factory Default

To reset Cisco RV130 router,

1. Turn on the Cisco RV130 router
2. Look for the reset button. Few routers have a tiny hole and few others have a reset button.
3. Press the Factory reset button with a straightened paperclip pin or something that gets through the tiny hole, and hold it for about 15 seconds! (till you see all the lights flashing)
4. The Cisco RV130 router will reboot automatically. the unit has been reset and is ready to use. You can start from Step 1 in this guide to set it up
