Hm

quote:
When typing in the access password, I get a random number of characters typed per key press.
Isnt that a security feature in case someone is looking over your shoulder? ... To hide the amount of keystrokes??

Re: Hm

If that is true, then it is not saving the password that I originally typed in correctly. I have had to reset the damn thing several times to verify this.

Re: Hm

Yeah it generates random number of dots as you type in your password. I have set several of passwords on these and they all have worked fine. Just ignore the dots, type it in and you'll be set.

Re: Hm

Apparently I suffer from extremely fat fingers. The password does work OK apparently. Did confuse me to see the random number of password chars per keypress though--I really thought the router was glitching. Still, the ActionTech router is not as configurable (for me) and this circumstance prompted me to go back to my good "Ole Blue" box. See this post for details:
