Orbi Help default gateway password and username Model: RBS50

So I am trying to connect to my default gateway192.168...etc by typing it into my browser search bar and when I do it brings up the little login box of username and password.  I am pretty sure the original username and password are "admin" and "password" as that is what it had said when looking up the model. I type that in and it doesn't work as in goes to the same little login box with the username and password not filled in. I am trying to make a Minecraft server and need to login to the site to get the inbound port.  I have tried to retrieve my password by going to the website of Orbi which brings me into their complete similar little box of username and password and typed admin and password which in the end did not work. Help is much appreciated. My Orbi Model is RBS50

    You can try the steps listed here, otherwise you may have to factory reset:

      I have tried to do that and im pretty sure i am inputting the right one in. My serial number is located on the bottom of the orbi device under the label: SERIAL then lots of numbers and letters. I tried to input that in and it says that it does not match.

        Have you tried to use another web browser?

  • I am able to provide more info on my wifi router system. The Orbi router consists of 3 different ones around the house and a little rectangle box one.

        Hello Trajectory 

         

        Sounds like the default password was changed the only way to get it back to default is to factory reset the unit.
