R7000 in AP Mode
Hi,

I had taken the R7000 in AP Mode, pressed the reset button and redid the process of adding it back on as an access point. With this I was able to make the password something I remembered and am now able to interface with the R7000 while it's in AP Mode. Thanks all for the suggestions.

I honestly may have forgotten what its old password was but it disables and locks me out for 5 minutes. It'll ask for serial number but it doesn't go anywhere when I enter it and press 'continue'. Perhaps I'll have to reset it with the button on the back and put it back into AP mode with new credentials. All I'm doing is trying to get to a GUI similar to how I could've seen it when it was in router mode.
