National ADSL company uses Thompson ADSL modems with wireless with
custom password for each unit, if I got that correctly. It is definitely
not OEM password. I guess they used different passwords to prevent
others hacking into router via wireless.
And they use different password for actual PPPoE connection. First
(Huawei) modems they used even lacked the option to change or even see
PPPoE username and password.
