Step 1: Login to the DES-3526 via Console. For the complete procedure on logging into the management interface via Console, Power cycle the device by pulling the power cable located on the rear panel of the device and reconnecting the power cable.
Step 2: At the boot sequence, immediately after the Please wait, loading Runtime image… process completes, press the Shift and 6 Shift+6 keys on the keyboard simultaneously. The device will now enter Reset Configuration Mode.
Step 3: At the Reset Configuration command window, type the command reset password and press Enter on the keyboard. Press the Y key to proceed with the system save. Type the command restart and press Enter. Press Y to reboot the DES-3526 after saving the changes.
Note: In the Reset Configuration Mode, you may also reset the device to factory defaults by executing the command reset factory.
Step 4: All administrator account passwords will be deleted. You will now be able to login to the D-Link DES-3526 without a password.
Note: If you have reset the unit to factory defaults, there is no administrator user name and password by default.
I recently came to acquire a D-Link DES-3526, however after trying to follow these steps I was unable to change the password. Whenever I press Shift+6 it seems to do nothing more. screen shot:(http://tinypic.com/r/23vep2a/7)
