Trouble logging into admin tool for R6900v2

Hi,

 

I have an R6900v2 router and I'm having trouble logging into this router.

 

The password I have written down isn't working and neither does the password written on the router.

 

After a few failed login attempts, the screen allows me to enter the router's serial number.   I entered the serial number, but the device could not be found.

 

I did register the router on the netgear site.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thank you,

John

  • I must have entered the serial number incorrectly.

    This time I copy/pasted the serial number from the registration page and this time the number was accepted.
