Admin Password Reset - Nighthawk App
R7000 is working, but somehow Nighthawk app is requiring login with admin credentials and "admin" and "password" produce incorrect login credentials message. Tried routerlogin.net path, clicked cancel...
Somehow you shoud use the same admin password as it's in use for the Web based login on routerlogin.net ...

Not a secret: If the password recovery was not configured before, it's not workable.
Ok, however I never changed my admin password from the default and all was well a couple of weeks ago with accessing router settings from the Nighthwk app. We did have a 3-day internet outage recently due to storms (xfinity/comcast) FWIW.
I'll just proceed with a factory default reset.
