Netgear won't recover my password from when I rebooted. They then state the answers to my security questions are wrong but they are not. They won't let me contact them directly to correct this becaus...
There an issue with "password recovery" where if it wasn't setup, it still asks the recovery questions. But there isn't a correct answer so it keeps asking and doesn't let you recover them.
If you don't know the answers to the questions, didn't setup them up. Then you're only option to get back in is to factory reset and reinstall.
Push and hold reset for 7-15 seconds while its powered on.
