Yes of course Furry. The option re admin is simply missing.

I see password setting under Advanced > Administration > Set password using firmware V2.2.1.210. If that's missing on yours, maybe re-flash. I did not factory reset after updating firmware today and found no need to.

Mine is wide open as well and I didnt update my firmware yet. When I logout and then login again on the web interface it logs right back in without asking for a password. Is this suppose to happen? Does it know my ip address and allow me into the site without the password or is this a bug? It seems like it should ask me for a password. It use to ask me everytime but now it doesnt.
- BullyterrierOct 04, 2018StarSo, re my 40 having no admin security.
Factory reset brought back the password option but left the wireless admin page non responsive.
Manual download of the img files and manual update plus factory reset has resolved both.
So, flakey update issues remain.
Check your updated hardware carefully!- cool2562Oct 05, 2018StarI manually updated my satellites first then the router. How do I reset to factory defaults?
