7800N User Management Page

Post by sjypharm »

7800N router Software version 1.06g
Where has the 'User Management' page gone??
I used the 'Advanced' username option on previous software version and I now wish to change my password!
Help would be appreciated, thanks in advance.

I only have six entries under 'System'
Time Zone, Firmware Upgrade, Backup/Restore, Restart, Syslog and Diagnostics Tools
Clicking 'Advanced' at the bottom of the menu tree gives amongst others, 'Device Management' but no 'User Management' anywhere!

Problem solved
I logged on using admin defaults which gives me the advanced system menu you referred to.
I find that somewhat odd. I would have thought an 'Advanced' password trumps/overrules a default admin password?
Thanks for your prompt reply.

You must login as 'Administrator' to be able to change the username or password for the router (a security feature)

You can also change the 'Administrator' password, but the username will have to stay as 'admin'

Thanks for that info - I had changed the admin password but I guess I didn't understand the FULL significance of the admin account.
I don't know what I would do without my Billion router - rock solid!!
