I have a Netgear CAX30 wifi cable modem router. Reset button does not reset the admin password.
I try the reset through 3 time failed passowd input, with device SN typed in , but my security questions's answer seems not right. I used the paper clipper pin to hold the reset ...
typed passord for admin, it still shows the passord is wrong
Typing errors? "passord" instead of "password"
security questions's answer seems not right.
This is a common situation. During the initial configuration, users were supposed to use the drop down menu symbol to deliberately choose security questions. Often, they fail to "pick one" and assume that the question that is showing is what will be used. (sigh) In this case, only a Factory Reset can be used.
