May 25, 2020NIghthawk AC2300 suddenly dropped network - won't recognize password
Netgear nighthawk
AC2300 Smart wifi router
Model : R7000P
We lost our WIFI connection and can't get it back. It does not recognize our password. I had previously blocked all new devices from getting access to our network. I am not sure how to change the password now, it keeps telling me the old password is wrong. My admin password is fine. Help?

Tried removing that block?

If you visit the support pages:

you can feed in your model number and find the documentation for your hardware.
This will tell you how to change the wifi password.
