Yikes! ... now we're getting somewhere...

Here is my recommend... send the dsl modem back (no I'm not kidding) and pick
up a dsl modem at BestBuy, or CicuitCity, whatever; most dsl providers will
allow the customer to opt for their own equipment.

What is the modem's address? Your dsl modem (if it has a firewall) probably
also has a web interface for configuration. Have your son access it from his
browser using the address of the modem. He should be able to set a password
and configure it from there.
