Tried OS reinstall via the boot menu - this seemed to fix things until I changed the admin password from the default password setting. I can't leave the default password set though.
I'm trying to avoid a Factory Reset... Any ideas?
- Do another OS reinstall.
- Downgrade to 6.10.4 (without changing the password).
- After the downgrade reboot, change the password.

Really? So the solution is to abandon the latest update and just stick with the prior release going forward?
Will I ever be able to upgrade again? Is the update bad or just incompatible with the previous one? If incompatible, then it seems poor to automatically upgrade to a version that brakes the http auth process...
Maybe I'll just grit my teeth and perform the factory update.
Thanks,

That is the work-around if the bug affects you (it doesn't affect everyone) until Netgear publishes a real fix.
