Unable to create a free OpenDNS account

Spent and hour last night trying who knows how many passwords all with the right requirements and nothing happened, it wouldn't work.  Then I found this thread this morning, created an 18 digit password by combining 2 of my most frequently used passwords and it worked.

Someone needs to send a memo to Netgear that the minimum character count for the password is not 8...I'm sure a 15 character password works as others have said, but I need something I could remember.

So to all who find this thread, you need to have at least 15 characters in your password and you need to have at least 1 of the each of the following characters in the 15:

1) A caplital letter

2) A lowercase letter

3) A number

4) A special character !@#$%*()

Hope this ends the frustration.
