PASSWORD SETUP
Management access to the ADSL Router is controlled through different
levels of user name and password.
To protect access to the management interface, you need to configure a
new Administrator’s password as soon as possible. If a new password is not
configured, then anyone having access to the ADSL Router may be able to
compromise the unit's security by entering the default values.
