R6230 not able to reset password

       "not able"?  Don't have a pointed stick, or what?

     

       _Which_ "password"?

     

       "not able" is not a useful problem description.  It does not say what
    you did.  It does not say what happened when you did it.  As usual,
    showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results (error
    messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
    descriptions or interpretations.

     

       Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
    for Documentation.  Get the User Manual.  Read.  Look for "Types of
    Logins" and "Factory Settings".  Further reading might not hurt, either.
