Router Passwords

0

I have an idea.

What if the routers came from the vendor, pre-configured with a default password, one that involved say the serial number of the device? It would be unique, it would be immediately available to the user. If the user wanted to change it or remove it, then that was HIS business.

Not great, but better than "password" or no pasword at all.
