I just purchased the Nighthawk AXE7300 Tri-Band Wi-Fi Router. Password change?
Hi, i just purchased the Nighthawk AXE7300 Tri-Band Wi-Fi Router. I may be Crazy, But I'm sure I saw during setup that if was not recommended to change the default name and password. This seems illogical. Did anyone else see this?

I did change the password On the router's login credentials. I'm sure you're right about the wifi login password. This was during initial setup of the new router. They may have been prompting not to change anything until setup was complete. Otherwise it did seem counter intuitive. Thanks for taking the time to answer.

Really? Can you get a screenshot to confirm this?
Are sure it did not say that it isrecommended to change the default name and password?
In any case, your memory is clearly amiss on one point, you cannot change the "default name" if by that you mean the router's login credentials. That is, and always has been, admin.
You can change the password from the default, which is password.
