Note: Be sure to change the router’s default configuration password to a very secure
password. The ideal password should contain no dictionary words from any
language, and should be a mixture of letters (both uppercase and lowercase),
numbers, and symbols. Your password can be up to 30 characters.
Note: For enhanced security, restrict access to as few external IP addresses
as practical.
