I get the point of the meme, but can I just say I hate routers that give you a default password other than admin or password. Like I get the point of it is to prevent the device from being insecure when the user doesn't put a password on it. However after a while the back of the router becomes basically unreadable and when you go online and search default admin password for x and their support page says that the password is different per router it's a little ridiculous. It is a much better approach to just force the password to be changed when you do the initial setup that way you can forget the admin password and factory reset it and still be able to access it where with current day routers if you reset it and you don't have that little piece of plastic on the back that says the admin password you're more or less SOL
Where do you keep your router? Lol my oldest router is still clearly legible
Mines behind our printer, it gets covered in dust and the adhesive on the sticker is starting to fail lol, thankfully it's not one that does that though so I'm not too worried.
