Change Password
For security reasons, the modem router has its own user name and password that default to
admin and password. You can and should change these to a secure user name and
password that are easy to remember. The ideal password contains no dictionary words from
any language and is a mixture of upper case and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols.
It can be up to 30 characters.
The modem router user name and password are not the same as the user name and
password for logging in to your Internet connection.
