Nighthawk CAX80 Router Password Reset everytime i try to access the router
This has been a recent development, everytime i try to login to the router to access the settings it makes me reset the password. No matter how many times i go through the whole setup, it goes right back to this. Ive done a factory reset (by holding the reset button for about 30 sec), I have had trouble finding much about this issue on other forums so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

| We can help you reset your router's admin password. You need your router's serial number, which can be found on the router label. Enter your router's serial number in the field and click the Continue button. |

What FW version is loaded?
What browser are you using?
Be sure to clear out all browser caches and any saved password profiles in the browser.
Try a different browser to set up the modem when you factory reset the modem...
FW V2.1.4.2
Ive been using Edge however ive tried chrome.
Ok i feel like ive tried that but ill give clearing out the cache a shot.
thanks
Well i tried clearing out everything, still the same and then downloaded Firefox. Went through the whole thing and still just loops me right back to the reset password page....
