Error login into www.mywifiext.com.

Hi, I have a PowerLINE 1000 + WiFi (PLW1000).
I changed the password of my Access Point (128 characters long), with the possibility of recovering the password, by answering the two security questions.
I didn't change username, so it remained the same, i.e. 'admin'.
During the first login after the password change, an error similar to: 'Content Error text/html ... PWD:/usr/www' popped up.
I have looked references in my pc, not finding anything about folders or files.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks a lot!

    Maybe try factory resetting and  doing a shorter 8-10 character password

      Factory resetting is the last chance. If I can, I would like to resolve this problem not factory resetting.

        tough to get in and access it if the password is the issue. 

        Password recovery just gives you the password but thats the problem.
