Table 31   ADVANCED > System Configuration > General

System Setup
System Name

Enter your computer's  "Computer Name". This is for identification 
purposes, but some ISPs also check this field. This name can be up to 
30 alphanumeric characters long. Spaces are not allowed, but dashes “-
” and underscores "_" are accepted.

Domain Name

Enter the domain name entry that is propagated to DHCP clients on the 
LAN. If you leave this blank, the domain name obtained from the ISP is 
used. Use up to 38 alphanumeric characters. Spaces are not allowed, 
but dashes “-” and periods "." are accepted.

Administrator 
Inactivity Timer

Enter the number of minutes a management session can be left idle 
before the session times out. After it times out, you have to log in 
again. A value of "0" means a management session never times out, no 
matter how long it has been left idle. This is not recommended. Long 
idle timeouts may have security risks. The default is five minutes. 

Password Setup
Old Password

Enter the current password you use to access the WiMAX Modem.

New Password

Enter the new password for the WiMAX Modem. You can use up to 30 
characters. As you type the password, the screen displays an asterisk 
(*) for each character you type.
