Changed router password not can't login

Question

Having trouble with my router.&nbsp; Did login using the default login. Once in there was a firmware update that I processed.&nbsp; Had to then log back in no problem.&nbsp; Next I changed the router password and did enable recovery questions option. Then it logged me out, but now I can't log back in with the old or new password.&nbsp; Used the router recovery and is shows the right new password.&nbsp; Still no luck!!!&nbsp;Tried 3 browsers, cleared internet cache and used both wireless and wired connections.&nbsp; Also an ipad too!&nbsp;Now what do I do?Thanks for any expert help,Diana

You can get back to the default password by doing a factory reset on your device.

There is a manual for the R8000 somewhere at the end of this link:
