Small UI bug in Orbi web interface
When logging on to the Orbi web interface, and when "Remember this password" is checked, it remembers the "User Name" NOT the Password. Unselecting that check box, the User Name has to be re-entered....

Unselecting that check box, the User Name has to be re-entered. There does not seem to be any capability to remember the Password. (Macbook Pro running Safari on Catalina v10.15.6).
What URL are you referring to? Is it http://orbilogin.com/ (the local admin portal for your Orbi device) or https://accounts.netgear.com/ or something else?
My Orbi admin web interface doesn't offer to remember anything. It's my Windows Chrome browser doing the login dialog, not Orbi. Your Mac laptop's browser and password manager may also offer to remember usernames and passwords. Such features are not controlled by Orbi.

Thanks for the rreply Mikey94025,! The Safari browser does remember and prompt with passwords filled in, but not for this page - I am referring to orbilogin.com/orbilogin.net in reply to your question. I did try Chrome/Mac and Edge/Windows and both worked fine. It must be some anomaly between Safari/Mac and this site. I did ensure the password is entered into the password list including deleting it and re-entering it, and I cleared cookies and web site data per FURRYe38 's suggestions. Thanks!
