M1 Router Admin Password Not Being Accepted

I purchased an M1 router and after reading the threads on here about the admin password and trying their suggestions of both "admin" as well as "attadmin", neither one are being accepted to allow me to log in to set it up.

    For MR1100-100NA, the default admin password should be printed on the device label as well. It may not be the same if someone changed it. To restore the default admin password, you can do a factory reset.

     

    Thanks

    Please advise the SKU of your M1. You can find it on the product label.

     

    Thanks
