Change Password and Login Time-Out

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 uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and
symbols. It can be up to 30 characters.
Note: The modem user name and password are not the same as the user
name and password for logging in to your Internet connection. See
