Orbi app won't login if admin password contains ;

Netgear Mods

Orbi app won't login if admin password contains ; (in my case the ; was at the end of the password)
The password is fine for the web interface but Orbi app fails. Might want to fix that in a future release.

  • in general you should never use non common characters in ether user names / passwords , ssid's or passphrases

     

    stick to just lower and upper case and numbers

     

     

  • Sure....but my point was that if the regular web interface allows you to set and use the password then the Orbi app should allow the password to be used as well.
