System Settings
The “System Settings” page is where you can enter a new
administrator password, set the time zone, enable remote
management, and turn on and off the UPnP function of the Modem/
Router.
Setting or Changing the Administrator Password
The Modem/Router ships with NO password entered. If you wish to
add a password for greater security, you can set a password here.
Write down your password and keep it in a safe place, as you will
need it if you need to log into the Modem/Router in the future. It is
also recommended that you set a password if you plan to use the
remote management feature of your Modem/Router.
Changing the Login Time-Out Setting
The login time-out option allows you to set the period of time that you
can be logged into the Modem/Router’s advanced setup interface. The
timer starts when there has been no activity. For example, you have
made some changes in the advanced setup interface, then left your
computer alone without clicking “Logout”. Assuming the time-out is
set to 10 minutes, then 10 minutes after you leave, the login session
will expire. You will have to log into the Modem/Router again to make
any more changes. The login time-out option is for security purposes
and the default is set to 10 minutes.
Note:
Only one computer can be logged into the Modem/Router’s
advanced setup interface at one time.
