Protecting Access to Your Modem Router
For security reasons, the modem router has its own user name and password. Also, after a period
of inactivity for a set length of time, the administrator login automatically disconnects. When
prompted, enter admin
for the modem router user name and password for the modem router
password. You can use procedures in the following sections to change the modem router password
and the amount of time for the administrator’s login time-out.
NETGEAR recommends that you change this password to a more secure password. The ideal
password should contain no dictionary words from any language, and should be a mixture of both
upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols. Your password can be up to 30 characters.
Note: The user name and password are not the same as a user name or password you
might use to log in to your Internet connection.
