If the modem your talking about is the ZyXEL Prestige 623R-T1 ( that i believe is supplied with iol ), follow the reset sequence below !

10. How to use the Reset button?

Step 1:
--------
Make sure the PWR led is on(not blinking)when you begin this procedure.

Press the RESET button for ten seconds (or until the SYS LED starts blinking), then release it. If the SYS LED blinks, the defaults have been restored and Prestige restart.

Otherwise, go to step 2.

Step 2:
-------
Turn the P623R-A1 off.
While pressing the RESET button, turn the Prestige on.
Continue to hold the RESET button.
The PWR LED will begin to blink and flicker very quickly after about 10 seconds.
This indicates that the defaults have been restored and the P623R-A1 is now restarting.

Testimonial: "Thank you Ron,i wanted to know if there is a way of discovering the WiFi password without having to reset it, since it isn't my WiFi. If you have any ideas on how to do that, it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again, Derek"

If the router will not connect to the internet, you will need to create the PPPOE internet connection with the username and password that your ISP provided. BPCS

SOURCE: ZyXEL P-660HW-D3 password change

There should be a tiny recessed 'button' (usually more of a hole) in the back of your router. This may be marked 'reset'.

To use this to reset your router, the manual for the Zyxel P660HW router advises that your power LED should be on, but not blinking.

Push the end of an opened out paperclip into the 'reset' button (hole) for 10 seconds, or until the power LED blinks. This restores your defaults. The manual I have advises that your password will be reset to 1234. If you have a manual, please check this.

Good luck ;-)

SOURCE: how to bring back the router function of zyxel P600 w/o password

You can simply reset the device to factory defaults. There's a reset button at the back of it. Hold it down for 30 second with the power on. That will reset the unit back to router function.

Try to change the Local or LAN IP Address of your Zyxel to 192.168.5.1 and do not configure the Zyxel router for PPPoE Connection. It should be configured as Obtain IP Automatically or Automtic DHCP.

How do you access WPA Key Settings on a ZyXEL modem?

To access Zyxel configuration/setup utility, launch a web browser (Internet Explorer, Opera, Firefox, or Netscape, etc.) on your computer, type in http://192.168.1.1 (default IP address for most Zyxel wireless devices) in your Internet browser's Location/Address bar, and then press Enter on your keyboard. 
If presented with a user authentication (login) screen, try the following:

Default Username - Zyxel Wireless Router: N/A (none, leave blank)
Default Password - Zyxel Wireless Router : 1234 

If you cannot login using the above, verify that (a) you are entering your password correctly, and that (b) your CAPSLOCK key is off. It could also be due to the firmware (a set of instructions stored on an EEPROM microchip) on your Zyxel product being corrupt. If so, you would need to reset your Zyxel WiFi router to its factory default settings.

IMPORTANT: Do not forget to promptly secure your Zyxel router (using a strong password, a non-obvious WEP Key, etc.) following a reset to factory default settings. Failing to do so may potentially expose your entire WLAN to scammers.

*Your vote is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
