How to create a new user
Two user accounts (Admin and Guest) are preconfigured for router access. The
password for the Admin user is the same password that you use to access the
router. By default, the user Admin is a member of the group named Admin,
and the user Guest is a member of the group named Guest. To keep it simple,
consider creating user accounts on your router that use the same user names
and passwords that are used by your computer’s operating system.
NOTE
Users can be a member of only one group.
