       It will ask for your current modem password which is either admin or ADMIN#1

       It will ask you to type in a new password twice

       Type ADMIN#1 or admin as the new password in the boxes

           Just use whichever one is not already your existing modem password

            If you are connected over Wi-Fi, you may need to connect to the Wi-Fi again

           and log into the modem again using the new settings)
