Recently, I just received the Fios Internet Plan and I wished to change the default username and password on the modem. So I went to http://192.168.1.1/ and typed in "admin" and "password1" but I failed to log in. Then I went ahead and reset the modem and tried it again, still didn't work. And now "login has been temporarily disabled due to too many unsuccessful login attempts."
Also, something's weird. When I'm trying to type "password1" in the password section, it appears to be longer than what it should be. One single letter comes out to be 3~4 hidden characters. Really need some help this.
By default the userid will be admin and the password is the serial number that can be found on the sticker on the back of the router.
If you reset the router the userid will be admin and you will be prompted to select a new password.
The extra characters when you type the passwaord are meant o be a security feature to mask the length of the password. Ignore them and just type in whatever the password is meant to be.
I'll guarantee it's not password1 unless you set it to that as VZ abandonded that scheme about 12 months ago.
