Hi Niabu,
Welcome to the community!
There is a policy set on the admin user by default to block the account to login from the WAN. This is a security mechanism as the admin password is a default password easily available on the internet.
To disable this feature go to Users - Users. For the admin user click on Policies. De-select the option "Deny Login from WAN Interface" and click Apply.
You should change the password from the default password before making this change.
Thanks.
