Can't Login to admin settings even after factory reset - c6300v2
Says it all.
Neither router login pages work, nor do direct IP pages.
Admin/password does not work.
Nighthawk app does not work.
Password recovery does not work as it asks me security questions I *never* entered.
Factory resetting modem did nothing.
I am five seconds from returning this thing unless someone can help me fix it.

The c6300v2 is a cable modem/router. It has very little in common with the Mobile Routers, Hotspots & Modems covered in this section.
You might get more help, and find earlier questions and answers specific to your device, in the appropriate section for your hardware. That's probably here:
Cable Modems & RoutersIf you do start another discussion, you might like to add a bit of detail about how you are trying to access the settings. Wifi? Wired? Browser? App?

Any progress on this?
