If you reset the device, you will have to set it up again. Then there should be a way to bypass any "wizards" that try to help you to set up the device.
According to the manual (page 74) there should be an option to CONFIGURE MANUALLY.
Did you check the appropriate section for the EX6200:
WiFi Range Extenders & Nighthawk Mesh
I can see a few questions there on the same lines.

Glad it worked. As I suggested, a reset is often a good way out of those login issues.
Now that you have access, you can decide whether or not to enable password recovery.
And when the thing is set up to your satisfaction, it is a good idea to save a copy of your configuration. You can then reload that if you ever have to reset the thing again.
