Security
Link: Passwords
Access to your Gateway may be controlled through two optional user accounts, Admin and User. When you first power up your Gateway, you create a password for the Admin account. The User account does not exist by default. As the Admin, a password for the User account can be entered or existing passwords changed.
Create and Change Passwords. You can establish different levels of access security to protect your Netopia Gateway settings from unauthorized display or modifica- tion.
•Admin level privileges let you display and modify all settings in the Netopia Gateway (Read/Write mode). The Admin level password is created when you first access your Gateway.
•User level privileges let you display (but not change) settings of the Netopia Gateway. (Read Only mode)
To prevent anyone from observing the password you enter, characters in the old and new password fields are not displayed as you type them.
