Router settings

Hi to everyone in the community,
Just had my Plusnet Broadband activated today ;D, was wondering if someone could please help me with router settings.  I got the Thompson wireless router offered when I joined, i'm just wondering where do I turn on Mac Address filtering and set it so that it asks for a password when trying to access the router settings?  I've had a look through the menus but can't find either.  Hope someone can help!
Kind regards

default router password help

Hi all,
I've got the Thomson Gateway router that you get with the value package and i'm trying to access some advanced settings but it keeps asking for a username and password.  Does anyone know/or where i can find out the default user and password (I can't find anything on the router instructions)?
Cheers Smiley

username: admin
password: admin
alternatively
User Name = Administrator
Password = blank (don't type  it)

Re: Router settings

It appears this thread posted later deals with this - http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,76070.0.html
Some advice from a mod perhaps.
