WNR1000 v3 Reset and log in problem
Hello guys! Little help here? I reset my router (7 seconds with the reset button), went dark, and reset. With the browser on computer hooked up by cable and wifi off, I was able to open the genie...

Called support who said hte password after reset is just "password" and not my default one when originally set up
Tried it and it worked. I am back in business!

Correct, and I tried different ports - 1 through 4 with the same result.
It is broadcasting and the genie default setup after reset seems to be able to get it going.
However, it gets stuck if I select "set up manually" at the log in credentials. Choosing the default "would you like genie to help with setup" completes it, but again, no access after that.
All other ports work too after that step, just no possiblity to log in as admin and change settings.
