My WiFi password got changed automatically
This morning, all of a sudden, my wifi password got changed without my knowledge. Obviously, the first thought would be if someone else changed, but that is not possible at all, as I was the only one...

Hi, my netgear account password keeps getting changed every 2 weeks or so. Is there a chance someone is trying to hack my wifi? I've changed the password everytime it logs me out of my netgear account on my iphone app. Everytime i get logged out it won't let me use the previous password so i change it with my email & then i change the wifi password aswell. 7-14 days later, it logs me out with a different password. What is cuasing this issue?
