Reset Nighthawk AX4 AX3000 WiFi Router(RAX35v2) Question
I have a: Nighthawk AX4 AX3000 WiFi Router(RAX35v2) that I purchased about 2 years ago based on a recommendation from this group. I on a scale from 1-10 I give it an 11!!! I presently have experienced a problem and which my internet provider said I should do a factor reset on my router. I see the instructions on how to do it and am good to go. My concern is what will happen once I do it. After I do it, change the username and password to my current settings will all my connected devices (cellphones, tablets, TV's etc) still be connected or do I need to connect EVERYTHING? I might live with the pain if I have to go through that process.

Can reset by pressing the reset button in back for 15 seconds then release https://kb.netgear.com/9665/How-do-I-perform-a-factory-reset-on-my-NETGEAR-router
Or use the ERASE button on the routers web page to factory reset the router:

While setting up, if you use same SSID name and password for the WiFi, then your devices will reconnect.
