Gateway password - Consequences on the devices connected on the LAN?

[Philip144]

If I change the password on my Rogers Gateway what are the consequences on the devices connected on the LAN side by ethernet and by WiFi? Do I have to reset the password on each device?  I ask this because many folks providing services need that password to set up their devices - Generac generator, security box, et. al.

anything wired by ethernet, will not be effected at all by changing the wifi password.

Anything wifi connected though, yes would need to be re-connected after a change.
