I have lost my 8 digit pin number
I want to reset my router to factory mode so I can start over again. I have lot my 8 digit PIN . Where can I get another one please?
I am so sorry, I wasn't at all clear. When I set up my nighthalwk rax10 6 router, it came with a piece of paper with a QR codefor the app on my phone . Now I am not sure if there was also an 8 digit code number that I had to punch in during the installation of the router. my question is, if I reset to factory version, will i need this code number ( if there was one). I have lost that piece of paper. I hope this is better. Marion

I've never touched an RAX10, so I know nothing, but I've never heard
of such a code number.

Did you? Did you find any reference to such a code number?

If you needed one before, then I'd guess that you might need it
again. I doubt that you needed one before.
Note that a (misnamed) "Factory Reset" is a _settings_ reset. It
does not affect any "version".
Presumably, if you're still in your 90-day support period, then you
could get help from Netgear:
