Can't log in to www.routerlogin.net

I got an email about doing a firmware update on my Nighthawk R7000-100NAS router.  What I have written down as either my username or password must be wrong because www.routerlogin.net won't let me sign-in.  I tried recovering my passwrod by hitting cancel then entering my S/N but nothing happens when I click continue.  I tried the recovery process using both Chrome and IE without success.  How can I recover access to my router?

    You must find your local router IP Simple 192.168.1.1 192.168.0.1  10.0.0.1 etc...

    after you can access to panel.

         A full ("factory") reset is the usual recommendation for a lost admin
      password.  After a full reset, you'll need to reconfigure the thing, of
      course.  The User Manual should explain how to do this.  Visit
      netgear.com/support, put in your model number, and look for
      Documentation.

        I couldn’t log in to the NETGEAR router to change the security setting. I was using an IPad. I tried my cell phone with a google web browser and typed in the the router’s IP address in the search window. Low and behold the login page came up and I used “admin” for the user I’d and “password” for the password. I was able to change the security setting instantly.
