Router won’t accept password
Does anybody else have this problem? Occasionally when I try to enter my password the login/password boxes simply reappears. I re-enter admin and then the password and it may accept the entry and occasionally I have to do this a few times before it lets me in. Most of the time I get into my router eventually. Since it “works” I have not looked into it until now. After a few tries now it sends me to a password reset page and it says to try again in 5 minutes after which it brings up the login screen again. Rinse, repeat. I have not been able to get past this today. Does anyone else have this issue?

Re: Router won’t accept password
What NG router are you referring too?
What Firmware version is currently loaded?
What browser are you using? Try MS Edge, Firefox or Opera?

Any chance that you have browser that is trying to be "helpful" by remembering the login details.
Browsers have been known to overwrite typed in details with out of date stuff in memory.
This this happen with a different browser?
