Management Settings
The wireless AP/Router’s Management Settings menu provides the same 
configuration options in both Router and AP Mode. These settings allow you to 
change the operating mode, set the system time, configure a management access 
password, and upgrade the system software.
Admin Accounts and Remote Administration
Management access to the wireless AP/Router is controlled through different levels 
of user name and password. You can also gain additional access security by using 
control filters such as ACLs and URL filters.
To protect access to the management interface, you need to configure a new 
Administrator’s user name and password as soon as possible. If a new user name 
and password are not configured, then anyone having access to the wireless AP/
Router may be able to compromise the unit's security by entering the default values. 
Once a new Administrator has been configured, you can delete the default “admin” 
user name from the system.
Management access to the wireless AP/Router through the WAN port is possible 
when remote administration is enabled and the connecting HTTP, port or IP address 
is configured.
