the default login is:
login: admin
password: password
It usually requires you change the password during initial setup.
You can try the forgot password option. But if you didn't set it up or don't remember that either, then you'd need to factory reset it to get back to the defaults.

Since michaelkenward has already asked it to be moved, that's taken care of.
did you already setup the EX8000? either using the installation wizard or wps?
You realize that its a mesh router? Meaning that if you set it up using wps or using the default settings, it sets up using the same ssid as the router?
