Or, on most of these, at least my Motorola I am using, I just fire the desktop up and use the default admin credentials and change the password to something I know. Usually, they have one listed on the back of the gateway, which you can have the tech read to you so you can store it somewhere, but arguably these maybe should be changed from default in case there is an algorithm for a bad guy to get hold of them by looking mac addresses up somewhere.

I'll give you a couple of tips now. 1. Go in to your browser once the modem is installed and type in this URL IP address exactly: 10.0.0.1 Now, enter the credentials required. Your installer should be able to inform you of what they are. ON the page, click on the wireless settings. There's an edit button you can press and when you do, this will open up the area where you can view the default wireless WPA password or else set up a new one. Note this. IF you change your WPA password, and you need to have tech support remotely restart your modem in such a way that it reinitializes, you will need to know how to locate and read out your default wireless password and enter that one in to the devices you want then to connect. OF course, you can always change it afterward. HTH. Sincerely, the Constantly Barefooted Ray, Still a very happy Mac and iphone user!

VO users will have no issues at all gaining access to the wireless configurations. Also, you can connect using either wireless or else RJ45, which ever you wish.

The question is this. On my iMac using Safari, will the DOCSIS modem be accessible by VO users? Also, will I be able to access the modem from both the wireless mode as well as directly through a RJ45 ethernet connection? In either case will both points of access be accessible to VO users using Safari? Has anyone had any problems with the wireless gateway mentioned above? TIA for any answers.
