Remote Password Reset
I have a vacation home in another state. The router is prompting people staying there to reset the admin password. Is there a way for me to reset it remotely if I am not physically near the router?...

Is that the C3700 cable modem/router in your footer?
You have posted your message in the section of this community given over to Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems. (This is easily done, given Netgear's complicated community structure.)
Many questions apply to different types of device, so you might get responses here, but a cable modem/router isn't much like a mobile hotpot, so you might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your hardware, in the appropriate section for your device. That's probably here:
Cable Modems & Routers
In the meantime you could visit the support pages:
Support | NETGEAR
Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.
You may have done this already. I can't tell from your message.
I mention it because Netgear gave up on supplying paper manuals years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
