also restore the default password. Click Apply to save your changes.
Note: Before changing the WPN802 password, use the backup utility to save your
configuration settings. If after changing the password, you forget the new password you
assigned, you will have to reset the WPN802 back to the factory defaults to be able to log
in using the default password of password. This means you will have to restore all the
WPN802 configuration settings. If you ever have to reset the WPN802 back to the
factory defaults, you can restore your settings from the backup.
