C71000v want to reset wifi password.

I do not remember the wifi password that was set so I can't edit it since it asks for the "old" password. I have tried the reset pin hole and the lights went out but still unable fix it.

    the wifi password isn't the same as the password to lot into the router gui. 

    If you factory reset it, to log into the router the defaults are:

    login: admin

    password: password

     

    Those require you to change the password when you first log in. 

    did you do this?
