Gateway – Status Web Page Group
1. Software
The information section shows the hardware and software information about your gateway.
The status section of this page shows how long your gateway has operated since last time being
powered up, and some key information the Cable Modem received during the initialization process
with your cable company. If Network Access shows “Allowed,” then your cable company has
configured your gateway to have Internet connectivity. If not, you may not have Internet access, and
should contact your cable company to resolve this.

Forcing end user to change the password
Upon access to the web pages on the CPE side of the router, if the user has not changed the default
web password, a warning message must be displayed in the top banner of the web interface such as
being visible while accessing any tabs.
This warning message informs the user that the default password must be changed:
In the second sentence, “here” is a hyperlink to the password setting page. Clicking on “here” lead to
the display of the password setting page.
More information
By default, the username is empty (“”) and the password is “admin”.
This is set by different actions (non exhaustive list):
-
at the manufactory level,
-
following a reset factory on the modem,
-
following a reset from the operator,
-
following a change by the user who wants to come back to the default setting after using its own
settings
When the current password is the default one, the user is strongly encouraged to change the default
web password:
-
Once the user logs in the web pages, the password setting page is displayed
-
the warning message must be displayed in the top banner of the web interface
-
The user can still access to all the web pages even if the password is not changed
-
The warning message must be displayed on the top banner of each accessed Web page while the
password is not changed
-
The password warning message must be visible while accessing all tabs in a the same web page
-
The password warning message is no more displayed on the banners once the default
password has been replaced by a new one.
At your first connection or while the password is the default one, a warning message is displayed on
the top banner of each Web configuration page. We want to encourage you to change the password in
order to enforce the security of your modem.
