r 6080 login fail
just a few days ago we can no long login with 192.168.1.1 it use to just go as chrome remembers the login stuff but now it says it's not private (which my network is private) and asking for name ...

I've reset it using the reset button, holding down for at least 30 seconds with it disconnected from modem still no joy
I used netgenie to look at it and I can get to the login but the default password is blank ...this used to show the password in it already and just enter and presto but now it's blank, I put in password and it fails
I can't find the firmwear version
the router itself is working fine. This might have been caused by a very brief ( like turning it off and on again in a blink) power loss last week

That password was filled in by your browser.
What does "it fails" mean? Some sort of error message? Says the password is wrong?
Do you have a different browser you can try?

yes the browser saved the login and it would just open
now it has a different login which mentions not being private
I try login in and it goes blank then the login pops up again and I try it again then it opens a page that looks like it's from the router asking for the serial number...I tried other browsers and they all do the same

That is a browser thing. That or some other setting on your device. It isn't really a router issue.
