Lightweight and portable application that helps users quickly recover passwords from router configuration files if backups exist
RouterPassView is a lightweight and portable application that recovers lost passwords to router configuration files, as long as there are backups stored on the computer.
Since installation is not a requirement, you can just drop the executable file somewhere on the hard disk and click it to run.
It is also possible to run it on any workstation directly from a USB flash disk or similar storage unit.
An important aspect to take into account is that the Windows registry does not get entry updates, and files are not kept on the hard drive after removing the utility.
The interface is represented by a standard window with a plain and simple layout, where you can open the router configuration file using the file browser or drag-and-drop support. The list shows the item type, password, user name, and server.
It is also possible to grab passwords from Internet Explorer windows, open the router web interface, use a search function when dealing with large amounts of data, copy all items or only selected ones to the Clipboard, as well as toggle between table and text mode (ASCII or hexadecimal).
The simple-to-use application is very light on the system resources, running on low CPU and RAM. It has a good response time and retrieves passwords rapidly. No error dialogs were shown in our tests, and the app did not hang or crash. Thanks to its intuitive layout and overall simplicity, RouterPassView should please all users.
Most modern routers allow you to backup the configuration of the router into a file, and then restore the configuration from the file when it's needed.
The backup file of the router usually contains important data like your ISP user name / password, the login password of the router, and wireless network keys. If you lost one of these password/keys, but you still have a backup file of your router configuration, RouterPassView might help you to recover your lost password from your router file. This little tool will allow you to recover passwords from router config file.
Due to large amount of router models available in the market, it's impossible to support all of them. For now, RouterPassView supports a limited number of router models, and
I'll gradually add support for more routers in future versions.
Also, be aware that even if your router is not in the list, you can still try to open your router backup file with RouterPassView, because some routers are sold with different brand name, but they still use the same software / chipset of other routers.
Here's the list:
- Linksys WRT54GL, and possibly similar models.
- Edimax BR6204WG, and possibly similar models.
- Siemens ADSL SL2-141, and possibly similar models.
- Dynalink RTA1025W, and possibly similar models.
- NETGEAR WGT624, and possibly similar models.
- ASUS WL-520g, and possibly similar models.
Note: The application has multilanguage support and provides you with language packs. In order to install a pack you need to unzip the file and copy it to the application folder.
