Password Overview
Changing the default password allows you to prevent unauthorized access to the administration page of your NF18ACV.
You can change both the default password and the default username.
Remember your username and password
Once the username and password have been changed, you must remember the words or strings of characters that you have
defined.
If you forget your administration page login details, you will need to perform a factory reset to restore the default username
and password of admin, see below. The major drawback of a factory reset is that it will also clear any stored settings on your
NF18ACV. If you have made custom settings and have neglected to back up your settings, you will have to re-enter all of
them into the NF18ACV.
Important –NetComm Technical Support does not have a record of your personal username and/or password.
