Does anyone know how to view or recover the ADSL password from the netgear DG834Gv5 router ? Or know if updating the firmware will "loose" all the current settings & info ?

A reset should clear the password. http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/12744
Also it will clear all settings, normally a firmware update wont cause issue, but read about any adverse effects from updating before you do.
Damned, if you do damned if you don't

But it won't reset or view the current password

I found you can view the config settings file direct so I got the info from that file in the end.

Hmm, lets hope that's not exploitable remotely.
