Factory reset but now can’t login to router ssid
I’m really hoping someone can help me. I did a factory reset on my orbi, but cannot connect to the default SSID, as I no longer have the password that came with my system. Tried to log into orbi...

When I did a factory reset yesterday on Orbi RBR50, I connected a web browser to 192.168.1.1 and it came up with the configuration screen. The default user name is "admin" and the default password is "password". One of the first screens asked me to enter a new password. Of course, I did this from a Windows PC connected to an ethernet port.
When set to "factory", I believe the SSID and password are set to the ones printed on the label on the back.
