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'.
