3801HGV and password

I need to set up port forwarding and found a very good explanation from this forum of how to go about doing that.  However, when I got to the point where I had to put in my password, it wasn't accepted.  I understand the password is on the label of the 2wire.  Is this the network key that they're referring to? I've tried that, and I get login failed.  Can anyone help here?

 

Thanks!

Try the Device Access Code.

No, you need to enter the System Password shown on the label not the Wireless Network Key.

On the label there's an S/N; P/N MAC Address; SSID; wireless network key; device access code

 

are any of these correct?

My new 3801HGV doesn't have a device access code on the label, only the wireless SSID and password, and a link to AT&T support.

 

When I set DMZ Plus for my internal router, it accepted it without the password, but when I went to disable the 2wire wireless, it asked me to either set the factory password or my own, and when I set my own, it ignored my setting. It later gave a hint that it wanted the factory password and not the one I set.

Disregard this, I only noticed the obvious removable yellow sticker, not the dark gray on black semi-permanent label on the other side of the unit.
