While no password is required to connect to this modem.
Actually, a printer is connected to the modem (without PW).
The PC indicates that the connection is excellent.
There are no other connections. it can also connect to a network which
does not require PW.
I doubt that network connectivity has anything to do with it. How are you attempting the
connection? Ssh, Windows rdesktop, NFS, what? GUI or CLI? The correct answer depends
upon the connection method.
If you are using ssh or variants, password authentication for the person that you are
trying to login as is the normal fallback. Root not not normally have a password, so
don't do that.
If you are using rdp or variants, a connection password has been set on the remote
machine. Enter it.
