RBR760 admin password reset
When I set up this device, I seem to have changed the admin password, and did not save it anywhere. Is there a way to recover this information, or change the password, to be able to get into the admi...
I have tried this, in the past, with different results. Maybe it was because it was different hardware, older technology, etc. It is worth the try, but it was a headache adding the orbi from my old mesh network with some of the devices that had to be removed and re-added to apps, which means the settings get wiped out as well. If the hard reset has to happen, totally worth the try, but I also don't want to lose other configurations that I have set up as well.
Well, something to try with the RBR disconnected. The Recovery window should appear in the browser after 3 log in failures. Try a different browser. I use MS-Edge all the time.
Again, if this fails, you'll need to factory reset and setup from scratch...
Why I always recommend having a back up configuration saved to file for safe keeping. https://kb.netgear.com/000062080/How-do-I-back-up-the-configuration-settings-on-my-Orbi-WiFi-System
