Well people do it for a wide range of reasons. We use a Huawei router and the first time we needed to learn how to login because we were looking to set up our APN. Here are the Vodacom APN settings for Huawei routers.
Another time we needed to log in in order to change our WiFi name and password. That came after we had begun to suspect that somebody had gained unauthorized access and was draining our data.
We also occasionally log in to check our data usage. We have set up usage monitoring and we go in to see how much data we have remaining. Here is how to check data usage on a Vodacom router.
