Along with the gradual popularization of broadband Internet access, ADSL devices are increasingly appearing Beside individual users or home users. As the saying goes, "when walking by the river, there are no wet shoes", when individual users use ADSL devices for dial-up surfing for a long time, if they do not pay attention to the security protection work for the ADSL equipment, therefore, your ADSL device may be vulnerable to illegal attacks from the network, which may lead to loss of the dial-up Internet account or affect the normal operation of the ADSL device. In view of this, before using the ADSL device for dial-up surfing, it is necessary to take precautions for the ADSL device to ensure that the ADSL device can stay away from various security attacks from the network!

Adjust the background password to prevent illegal control of ADSL

We know that once hackers or illegal attackers steal the background logon password of the ADSL device, they can freely access the background management interface of the ADSL device, if you adjust or control the parameters of the ADSL dial-up Internet access, the speed of the Internet access is slow. Otherwise, the ADSL device may not work properly and may even damage the stability of the ADSL device. Considering that the default passwords used by ADSL devices are provided by the manufacturer, and the default backend passwords of ADSL devices of the same model are almost the same, in order to prevent the ADSL devices from being illegally controlled by outsiders, you must change the background management password of the device in time. The following describes how to change the background password:

First, in the computer directly connected to the ADSL device, double-click the IE icon on the system desktop, open the IE browser, and enter "http: // 192.168.1.1 "the default IP addresses of different models of ADSL devices may be different. You can find the default IP addresses of the devices in the operation manual.) Click the Enter key, we will see the background logon interface as shown in. Enter the default user name and password provided in the operation manual, and then click "OK, you can access the background management interface of the ADSL device.

Click the "manage" tab in the management interface, select an "operation" project on the corresponding tab page, and click the "edit" Link under the corresponding project, open the User Password editing window. In this window, enter the default password provided by the manufacturer correctly, enter the new password you set twice, and click "Submit, in this way, the backend management password of the ADSL device is changed to its own password. In the future, any hacker attempts to guess the background login password through the ADSL device model will not succeed, then they cannot illegally control the working status of the ADSL device.
