There are no specific instructions for this model yet, but you can always do the 30-30-30 reset as follows:

When router is powered on, press the reset button and hold for 30 seconds. (Use a paper clip or something sharp)
While holding the reset button pressed, unplug the power of the router and hold the reset button for 30 seconds
While still holding the reset button down, turn on the power to the unit again and hold for another 30 seconds.

This process usually works for resetting any router to it's factory setting.

If you have performed a reset of your SMC2552W-G device or not changed the defaults, you should be able to access it with the following settings:

Default Network name (SSID): SMC
Default Gateway IP: 192.168.2.2 SMC login instructions
Default username: admin SMC router default password list
Default password: smcadmin
Default subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Default DNS server: 192.168.2.2

Make sure you are connected to the router's network, either by Wi-Fi or ethernet cable.
Open your browser and visit http://192.168.2.2

You will now be logged in. If you haven't yet changed the defaul password, we recommend that you change it first thing you do after logging in.

If these instructions don't work for your router, you can always try a factory reset to get the default, or try some other common SMC credentials, as they can usually be shared across models/variants.
