Pre-Owned Nighthawk Router unable to access routerlogin.net
Hello,
I purchased a pre-owned RAX50 Nighthawk AX6 AX5400 6-stream router from Amazon. I am attempting to do port forwarding and I cannot log in to routerlogin.net with the default username/password combo. Support has expired on 11/8, any tips on what I could do to factory reset to default username/password?

The manuals are also a good place to start, visit the support pages:

and feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware. Search for "factory reset".

Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual. Read. Look for "Factory
Settings". Further reading might not hurt, either.Link not working. Could you please help further?
Thanks in advance!

Which "Link"? Which kind of "not working"?
"not working" is not a useful problem description. It does not say
what you did. It does not say what happened when you did it. As usual,
showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results (error
messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
descriptions or interpretations.
