Hello All
The Results are in!
Reset WNDR4500v2 Router
Still not acces after going through steps in manual
and this NetGeard Commuity link If you cannot login to your router
Bottom line: My trusty WNDR4500v2 Router gave up the ghost :smileysad:
It worked just find however would not let me access the admin.
Symptons it became more and more erratic in allowing login until ....no more.
Even after factory reset.
Solution: Tested with spare WNDR4500v3 Router, as soon as it was online I was in setting up
and backing up the config setting file.:smileylol:
It has Firmware Ver V1.0.0.32
Which was updated Dec 2019
It want's to update to a new version Ver V1.0.0.56
I beleive I will wait to and check out any complaints with the new version before upgrading.
Will be pickig up a new Router as a spare soon.
Good investment for me to have purchased a spare right after buying the original.
Thanks again for everyone's input.
Much appreciated

Sounds like you've done a bit of troubleshooting already. So it works fine until you load your backup configuration? Narrows it down a bit. Maybe it was corrupted. Let us know how it goes when you do the reset and manual setup. :)
Forgot to answer your question
Q. So it works fine until you load your backup configuration?
It seems to be leaning in that direction.
I have Netgear Smart Switchs and am able to login to them just fine via their web interface.
