    If you look at the mac instructions that will give you the temp
login and password. From the website they are

Then once you have the modem plugged in and running, go to
http://192.168.0.1 which should be the modem and you can login with the
temp info. You will also need the modem access code from the bottom of
the modem. Then go to <http://204.60.203.227/register> which should
automatically send you to
<https://sbcreg.sbcglobal.net/SBCYahooRegEARWeb/> automatically. For
some reason this does not display properly in Firefox on my machine but
it does in Konquerer. Click Accept, then on the next page click you do
not have a identity ending in sbcglobal etc etc, enter your DSL number
and follow the directions. From what I've been able to deduce that is
the web based setup utility.
