FreeBSD does not know anything about your router or the
password you
chose there.  It just uses 'westell.com' as domain name
because your
router's dhcp server told it to.  There is probably a
configuration
option on your router that lets you specify a different
domain name.

If you did not create a user during installation, simply log
in as
root and create a user for yourself.  If you weren't asked
for a root
password during installation, just press enter at the
password prompt,
and immediately set a root password with 'passwd root'.
