Set Password

For security reasons, the router has its own user name and password. Also, after a period of

inactivity, the login automatically disconnects. The user name and password are not the

same as a user name or password you might use to log in to your Internet connection.

Verizon recommends that you change this password to a more secure password. The ideal

password should contain no dictionary words from any language, and should be a mixture of

both uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Your password can be up to

30 characters.
