Wifi password doesn't work

Question

According to the label on the bottom, this is an orbi mini router RBR40. Note that this model isn't listed in the Model field above. My computer is a Dell Latitude E6520 running Fedora 28. The hardwired connection works fine where this machine is IP 10.0.0.2. The WiFi connection on the old router works fine.
&nbsp;
I am unable to make a WiFi connection on the orbi.
&nbsp;
I can find no combination of id/password that works when I try to login as administrator on the orbi as 10.0.0.1 nor as netgearlogin.com nor as netgearlogin.net. The various combinations of an id of none/admin and none/password/1234 don't solve the problem. I am unable to find the circle app on my Galaxy G5 phone.

I also tried the default password on the bottom of the orbi with the id of none and admin.

I do not know what is the cause behind this issue. I have also asked Router Supports&nbsp;for help. I am just waiting for there reply. If anyone from here can help me out then it will be fine for me.

The default login for the admin GUI is admin/password.
&nbsp;
If you cannot log in, you can reset the router to factory defaults by inserting a paperclip into the reset hole on the back of the router and holding it in until the power light blinks amber.

I had tried both earlier - no joy.

A Windows 10 machine does connect with WiFi after pressing the scan button when there is no connection to the modem. A later connection to the modem gives me an internet connection. (This is an example connection.)
