The username is suppose to be left blank, was wondering if someone could have changed this?

I have the password for the thing but its not accepting it with a blank password (tried IE7 and Firefox)

Any help getting into this little bitch would be nice. Tried connecting with it wirelessly, should I try using cable instead?

admin/admin | admin/password | root/root | root/admin | root/blank | admin/blank?

Will try the different combinations of usernames, the password has been changed to something including the default gateway, just not sure if it's possible to change the username to something custom as well (because that might be a bit screwed up right there).

Default settings says blank username and admin as password.

Will try root

afaik on dd-wrt if you use telnet/ssh instead of the web front-end the username is always root but the password stays the same.

Would it matter if you reset to factory defaults?

telnet in as root user type ...
nvram set http_username=''
nvram commit

I've just tested this, your http username will then be "root"
