R6300v2 401 Error on Login Cancel
When I type in my router's IP address, I get the login screen. I forgot my password, so I hit "Cancel" to see the recovery screen. However, instead of the recovery screen, I just get: 401 Unauthorized Access to this resource is denied, your client has not supplied the correct authentication. Does this mean password recovery is disabled? I'd rather avoid a factory reset, if possible. If it's possible to still reach the recovery screen, how might I go about that? I have tried from multiple devices with the same result. I have tried resetting the modem. I have tried accessing it through an Ethernet cable. I don't know if this is relevant, but I have two of the same model router daisy chained from my modem (long house), this one being the second in the chain. Thank you all in advance.
If password recovery was disabled, you can get that notice.
If you disabled it, you'd need to reset to get into it.
