not accepting password
Setting up new or I and it will not accept my password in the settings!!! Support # !,!
Is this intended to be an "example" of the password syntax used?

Setting up new Orbi and it does not accept my password in the settings. Frustrated because I can not find a way to solve this issue. No support number to call. My orbi is registered and when I logged in, it accepted my password. Off to a frustrating start.
Wire connect a PC to the router and factory reset the router using the back push pin button. Hold it in until the top led turns on AMBER then let go. Wait for the WHITE led to slowly pulsate, then log in to orbilogin.com using a web browser and walk thru the setup wizard. This time write down all important information for safe keeping later on.
Thanks. I did write my password down immediately. Not sure what happened.
So everything ok now?

Talking about the admin password (and a password you prefer) - or the wireless passphrase - how is it not accepted?
