You cannot change anything about the admin account other than its
password.
If you do not wish to change your admin password, just click Next .
To change your admin password,
click on the checkbox as shown.
This enables you to enter text in the
New Password
and
Confirm
fields.
The new passwords must match
identically for the password to be
changed; if they do not match, you
will be prompted to reenter the
passwords.
Passwords cannot be longer than 16 characters. To ensure
compatibility with the web interface, passwords can only contain
numbers, letters, and the following special characters: . - _ : / @ , ? ! ‘
; ( ) $ & “ [ ] { } # % ^ * + = \ | ~ < > `
Since most hacks these days come from automated programs
that try all possible character combinations, use a password that
is 16 characters long and easy to remember. A password like
parisinthespring is more secure and easier to remember than one like
P4S$w*rD .
The Virtual Keyboard
When changing the password, you can switch the virtual keyboard
between lower-case letters, capital letters, and symbols. The virtual
keyboard starts in lower-case mode by default. You can tell it’s in
lower-case mode because the yellow indicator in the upper right-
hand corner reads
En
.
Click on the [a] button, found at
the lower left-hand corner of the
keyboard, to switch to upper-case
mode. You can tell it’s upper-case
mode because the yellow indicator
in the upper right-hand corner reads
A , and the label on the button you
clicked switches to [A] .
To return to lower-case mode, click the [A] key. Note that the key
now reads [a] and the yellow indicator at the top right reads En .
