Guessing the forum would be quicker than trying their support as I’m trying to setup one which is supposedly pre-configured but not working.

Hoping not to reset it and conflate issues but cannot figure out the default admin username and password.

The manual says just Admin no password...but the interface says password required so that doesn’t work.

The very helpful Afrihost support pages simply say “enter the admin username and password” as if this should have been provided already.

Anyone?
 
And failing that if I do reset it are the PPPoE details stored on the CPE for an Octotel install?

Or does it goes into the Router?

I don’t have a laptop here with Ethernet to test directly.
 
So I wasn't alone after all. I couldn't figure it out either.

I just took a toothpick and reset the thing
 
Luckily I'm with Vuma so no PPPoE.

@SauRoNZA reset it and just get the login details from the client zone.

Yes problem is I’m nowhere near the details and asking my old man for them will take a day literally.

So will need to come back.

But okay so the details are in the router.

I suspect the line isn’t working at all and just want some details before logging ticket with them.

Worked for me, but I had to reboot the computer with the modem Ethernet connected.
 
Oh well I just reset it.

But turns out as usual the old people were confused and never followed the full activation process.
