I'll announce here when the Password options are available, I need to check them one last time. So please don't post saying you can't find them
So here is the announcement.
LOST/FORGOTTEN PASSWORDThe Logon page now has an extra line under the Log On button:
Forgotten your password? Select HEREDoing so takes you to another page where you can enter your Registered e-mail address. Doing so and providing it is Registered will send you an e-mail with a Reset link in it, otherwise you'll see an error. There is of course (as it says in the e-mail) nothing to stop anyone putting in/ guessing your e-mail who knows it and you'll get a mail that you can ignore if you didn't ask for it as nothing will happen - this is in common with many other reset mails on sites. There are some other questions one could ask to get round this but I hesitate to do so.
NB the earlier problems with e-mail have now been resolved after a lot of agro with Symantec, Message Labs and Microsoft.
If you select the mail link, and as it warns you several times in the mail, your password will be reset IMMEDIATELY to a random one chosen by the system and meeting the criteria. This is displayed to you ONSCREEN on the next page you see (some people get very upset if they get passwords by e-mail) so you need to write it down or copy it so you can then use the Log On page (via the link you'll see) to type or paste it in and actually Log On.
Change PasswordOf course, you might want to be able to remember it so if you then go to the Options menu at the bottom of the MyDSLWebstats window, there is now a Change Password option. You'll need your (easily) memorable phrase I'm afraid (for reasons I will not explain at length) and the new password twice which has the same criteria as the original Registration entry.
Once successfully changed that's it (as long as you remember what you changed it to). No need to Log Out or do anything else. You'll probably want to tell or confirm the change to your Password Manager if you use one.
I'll add an option to change your e-mail later.
OHF ERRORSWhile I am here (as I now definitely need to rebuild this machine so will be out of action for a while) someone mentioned a lack of upstream OHF/CRC errors. Upstream CRC errors are in fact already reported using the uploaded upstream OHF Error values as the upload doesn't have that data for CRCs (at least from HG612 Modem Stats). However, I checked and no values have ever been uploaded or recorded in the database, they are all zero. Hence why there are no values seen. Why I don't currently know.
Edit Wrong Date being imported now corrected but there isn't very much of it anywayAlso I notice that some of you are physically logging out - doing so will make you Log On again but doing so does NOT also reinstate the need for the much-loved captcha etc (as long as your Cookies are not being destroyed).
And I do take notice of comments and useful suggestions but many are not always practical or advisable for reasons I may not choose to explain.
G.DMT noted, I'll have a look - hadn't occurred to me I'm afraid.
