CM 400 Router

[OpenWheel]

Before I ditch this product for a TP Link, I need to know two things:

1.  What is the latest firmware version I should have to avoid known hacking issues with this router, and

2.  I cannot change the settings password.  I know how, but it continually comes up "invalid password."

old password = admin

New password = eight lower case letters, repeated twice (confirm).

after about 15 attempts, I gave up.

i tried re-booting several times, plus a factory reset.

No luck.

When I changed passwords, I was forced to include a number in my password. Did you try that?
