Router Password Recovery?
I am in password hell and need help. I'll spare the long story to say I cannot recover my password. I go to "Router Password Recovery", enter serial number, successfully answer security quest...
OK, so I did a factory reset. Took me two trys. I was able to set up the router with inital settings and defaults. The initial password was "password", then the setup changed it to @newdig. I tried to gain access to router configeration settings (192.168.0.1) but was again denied access and offered a password reset again - serial number, secret questions, I again got the "@newdig" password - BUT IT DOES NOT WORK!!!!!!!! I am denied access no matter what I do.

You should know that this community is essentially a user-to-user venue with some input from a small band of Netgear techies.
Most of the answers come from fellow users who have no connection with Netgear. They just have a lot of collective experience and are familiar with the sort of problems that turn up here.
If you want "official" support then you should go through the right channels.
