There has to be e batter/easier why to access the router.
I just bought a Netgear and found this to be annoying also. I found a solution:
1. after logging in go to the Advance tab

3. select Set password

5. problem solved
6. you'll get a warning about needing to restore to factory default if you can't remember your p/w.
