| 1239637 | 2011-10-25 03:58:00 | Most routers don't have the actual password on the bottom - in fact most ship with no password at all, it's for the end user to set up. | wratterus (105) | ||
| 1239638 | 2011-10-25 05:29:00 | The Thompson has the wireless code on the underneath as you have already found. | Snorkbox (15764) | ||
| 1239639 | 2011-10-25 05:47:00 | Yes, I set up a Thomson wireless router for someone recently and the name and code were on there. You can always go into it and change it if you want I think. LL |

| 1239640 | 2011-10-25 07:07:00 | Same for the vodafone one. I'm not worried because in order to read it you have to break into my house..in which case I doubt you're there for my wifi password. I imagine the big telly, the PS3 and the spirits in the cabinet are more appealing. A. |

Most I have struck have "admin" "admin" as log on and password and I reckon the first thing to do is change log on and password. |

| 1239643 | 2011-10-25 08:01:00 | The reason it's written on the bottom is because they're making these devices more and more idiot proof. So all you have to do is plug it in and everything works. The wifi (wpa2) and logon passwords are now written on these stickers. | WarNox (8772) | ||
| 1239644 | 2011-10-25 08:11:00 | They come on a sticker now that they advise you *ought* to stick to the Router, but it's easy to miss the sticker in the box of the Thomson TG585s... | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
| 1239645 | 2011-10-25 09:13:00 | It is a really good idea for most homes - as mentioned above, if someone can read the bottom of your router then you probably don't mind them having your wifi password. Saves people from using easy to guess or blank passwords | Greven (91) | ||
