Unable to change network password
Recently I upgrded my firmware. Earlier I could change my network password whenever I wanted. After I upgraded the firmware this is the first time I am trying to change my network password. When I type a new password and click on apply it is resetting to the old password. Somebody please help me.My Hardware version is WNR612v3 and the firmware version is 1.0.0.26 Can I downgrade the firmware to the old one?
Sir,
My problem is solved when I downloaded 1.0.0.18 and replaced 1.0.0.26.
I got the link https://www.netgear.com/support/product/WNR612v3?cid=wmt_netgear_organic#download when I searched in google typing "downgrade netgear firmware wnr612v3"
This is for the information of netgear company to fix their bug.
Thank you

You can downgrade, but you should probably reset the router to factory default first and reconfigure from scratch.
Sir,
I tried resetting the router to factory default several times. But, I still could not change my network password. I could only change the router password. I believe there is some bug in the recently upgraded firmware. I wish to downgrade. Kindly help me downgrade. Please let me know the procedure.
Thank you
