User & Password Settings
The User & Password Settings screen displays all the user accounts defined on the system.
User & Password Settings
The default account is admin. You cannot edit this account (its user name and password cannot be changed). For security purposes, Linksys recommends creating at least one user account with a unique user name and password. You can create up to five user accounts total.
(When you create your first user account, it will appear as though you are editing the admin account; however, you are only replacing the admin account with the new account. The admin account is not overwritten or deleted.)
Once you have created a user account, you can edit it (change the user name and/or password) or delete it. If the system contains only one user account and you delete that account, the original admin account will reappear in its place. This is because the system must always have at least one account.
To add a new user, use the arrow keys to select Edit, press Enter, then enter the new account’s user name and password in the Username and Password columns, and
To delete an existing user account, use the arrow keys to select Edit, press Enter, then delete the user name in the Username column.
To save your changes, press Esc, use the arrow keys to select Save, then press Enter.
