I think you are wrong , some model has blank password, for example:
SPA-3102
There is also some model that use blank username and password 'admin' to start administrator account.

(20 years selling and fixing this stuff)

It is possible default settings are different in different countries, I am in UK.

    You are right in this case, and majority of Linksys . wrt546 has Blank user name and "admin" for password.
    Probably the user changed settings.
    By the way had been a mistyping I just wanted to indicate user the most common case blank user passwd admin, just typed the opposite.

    Thanks by the way

Resetting password on a Linksys Router.

Hi there! :) just follow the steps to reset your router hope it works! :)
1.Press and hold the reset button on the LinkSys router for 30 seconds. The location of the reset button varies depending on your model, but it is usually located in a small pin hole on the side or back of the unit. Insert a straightened paper clip into the hole until you feel resistance. A hard reset occurs and the router is restored to its factory defaults.
2.Log in and reconfigure the router following the hard reset. Connect a PC to an Ethernet port on the router. Open a Web browser and navigate to http://192.168.1.1/. A popup box opens, prompting you to log in. On older LinkSys routers, leave the username field blank and type "admin" for the password. On newer routers, the default username and password are both set to "admin".
3.Go to the Management tab after you've logged in and set a new administrator password. For maximum security, choose a password comprised of random letters and numbers. This type of password is secure because it's impossible to guess.
4.Enable WEP or WAP security so that nosy neighbors cannot tap into your wireless network.

You may want to check thr router's settings. There is a web number that you type into your browser that will give you access to the router settings. It is possible that your line connections doesn't have a signal running through it . If you have fios..check your box. If you have cable check your modem

Password retrieval

There?s not much you can do. Try to put the router?s default password which is ?admin? (lower case) and then copy the settings so you can reconstruct them after the reset of the router. Hope it works good luck.

Lost Password to router

Hold the reset button on the router for 30 second, do not let go of it after the diag LED turns off, continue holding it until 30 seconds have passed. After you?ve done this, the router will revert to factory defaults, all of your settings will be lost. By default the default Password for the router is admin, and there is no User Name.
