14 Setting up Your Password
Setting up Your Password
A system password protects your gateway settings from being modified or changed by someone
who has not been given permission to do so. When a password is set up, you will be required to
enter a system password whenever you attempt to access a configuration page (for example,
when you try to change the broadband connection settings).
To set up a password:
1. Open a Web browser and enter http://home, http://gateway.2Wire.net, or
http://192.168.1.254 to access the gateway user interface; the Home page opens.
