I tried this approach ... I could get into the access point and view
configuration, activity, logs, and so on through the serial port,
without the password.  I could reset the access point, but I could not
change any configuration information, or reset the admin password
itself.  Any time I attempted to do any of this, I was prompted for
the current admin password, which of course I still don't have.

Any other ideas?  I'm more than happy to pop the back off of it and
fiddle with jumpers if it would help matters.  Otherwise, this thing
is a lovely paperweight and nothing else.

Thanks again!

Mike.
