Posted by admin on 13th, 2010

Recovering the password for your BSNL dataone broadband connection is fairly simple if you have choosed the PPPoE method of connection and your password is already stored in the modem or router.

I am using a Belkin G series wireless router. I’ll explain the method to recover the password for belkin g wirless router and the same method can be applied to any modems.

1) Connect to your modem, for belkin from internet explorer or firefox goto 192.168.2.1

2) You should be knowing the modem password, otherwise you cannot proceed. Login to your modem

3) Choose connectivity -> PPPoE

4) You will see the login information. Right click and view frame source.

5) CTRL+ F and search for “ISP_Password_Conf”. Near to password fields try n locate value=”your password

Eg: <input NAME=”ISP_Password_Conf”TYPE=”Password”maxlength=63 size=15 value=”bsnl password“></td>

For rest of the modems the modem url will be 192.168.1.1 and the default  username/password can be admin/admin

Removing websites from Most Visited Pages in Chrome

Posted by admin on 4th, 2008

Chrome is very good and rich in features as far as im concerned except it dosent have plugins. I browse so many websites and one problem i came across is that the ones i visit quite often, Chrome shows thumbnail of it in the most visited page or when you open chrome. I really dont want some websites to appear in those list.

Chrome does not let you delete or remove one website from the most visited page instead you should clear the entire browsing history to remove the websites from most visited page.

Clearing the Browsing Data in Chrome

 

  • Click the drop down next to Tool button on the right side of the chrome
  • Select Clear Browsing data
     
  • A new pop up window will come. Tick the Clear browsing history options and click on the clear browsing history button
     
  • You can clear Data for the last day or choose to delete entire data or last weeks data.
I hope there comes out a way to remove a single website from the most viewed websites page in chrome
