Setting a System Password
Setting a system password protects your gateway settings from being modified or changed by someone who
has not been given permission to do so. After setting a system password, you will be required to enter it
whenever you attempt to access a gateway configuration page — for example, if you try to change the
gateway’s broadband connection settings or upgrade the gateway software. If a password has not been set,
a reminder notice is displayed when you attempt to access pages where settings can be changed.
Changing Your Time Zone Settings
The 2Wire gateway sets the time automatically using time servers on the Internet. It retrieves date/time
information in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). You can set or change the Time Zone settings in the Edit Date
and Time Settings page.
