Question
How do I change the admin password on my T25 modem?
Answer
It is required to create a custom admin password during first-time access. The default username is admin and cannot be changed.  On firmware prior to version 11.02.057.07, the Status page will appear during the first-time access to the Web Manager and will not be asked to create a custom admin password.  The admin password can be customized after log in.  This document describes how to change the Admin password.
