If you read the instruction manual, it tells you this on one of the first pages. I decided to not read the instruction manual and wasted half an hour on this :lol:

I changed the admin password to admin.

Now if I log in as admin/admin it works, if I log in as blank/admin it also works. The admin pages seem to be identical.

Once you are in as admin/admin, you can switch off the normal user account, and change the admin password



Can you tell me how?

Thanks

Andrew

Goto:

User Management
User Profile
Profile1 - admin (this is the admin account)
Profile2 - this is the standard user account

Click the number 2 on profile 2, then you will see a screen where at the top, you can untick the box to disable the standard user account

Let me know if that works for you, it works on my Vigor 2830

Cheers
Ross
