Assigning passwords

After installation, your router configuration is not yet protected with a password. To 

prevent unauthorised changes to the configuration, you should assign a password and 

change this password from time to time. 

◆

In the 

System

 menu, select 

Password settings

.

 

◆

Enter a password in the 

New password

 box and repeat it in the box underneath. 

The password must be between 3 and 12 characters long. It is not case sensitive. 

Avoid names and all too obvious words. Use a combination of letters, numbers and 

special characters.

◆

Check the value in 

Idle time out

. 

Use the box to define when the configuration session should be automatically 

terminated if no more entries are made. The default entry is 10 minutes.
For security reasons you should enter a smaller value. 

◆

To apply the settings click on 

APPLY

.

i

If you ever forget the password you will have to reset your router. To 

do this, hold down the reset button on the back of the router for at 

least five seconds. Please bear in mind that this will restore 

all

 the 

settings to the factory configuration. No password will be active 

either.

!

If you enter 0 the session will 

never

 be cut automatically.
