With the same rights as admin? Why? I mean, you can, but why not use admin ?

This guide covers how to set up additional usernames for managing the router and disabling the default "Admin" account for remote management over the WAN:

Hmm I just tried it on mine and even with Landing Page ticked off a user is directed to the landing page set up on the "general setup" page - I have mine set to bbc.co.uk, not the default Draytek site.Piste Basher wrote:
But as a matter of interest what are you expecting to see? As I understand it a non-admin "user" can't log in to the router as such, they can only "log in" via the router to access the internet, or maybe to authenticate using the radius server.
Edit:-
Ah I see maybe it's this you're looking athttp://www.draytek.com/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&id=5745&Itemid=293&lang=en
That seems to be setting a different "user" to the ones set in user profiles as far as I understand it?
Thank you very much for your repsonse. I will try it out and come back with feedback. The thing is i just wanna sign in with an other account than Admin and manage it. So, you're bascically telling me that signing in as an USER you can not really manage anything? And if it is so, do you know any way of raising the permissions? Thanks a lot and have a good day!

Firstly, thanks for your response. Because we wanted another account apart from ADMIN just in case something happens to the ADMIN one(hacked). Eventually, i figured out a way to do it, thanks to your replies. Thanks again, have a great day!
