Netgear RS100 correct security answers not accepted
I just spent a few hours (really!) with Support to set up my router. I set up my admin password earlier in the day, so now I can't remember my password. I gave the correct answers to my security questions, but they're not being accepted. What do I do now?
and of course now I can't remember all the information I was supposed to supply, so if I need to add more just let me know what I'm missing

IF you can't remember the answers, you'll need to factory reset the router and setup from scratch:

Be sure to write down important information for safe keep and use later on.

Thank you. I thought that would be the answer.
Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
