R9000 invalid serial number after factory reset
After factory reset, I entered the "serial number" from the router and the pop up says invalid. Appreciate if someone can help solve the issue.

You shouldn't need the serial number.
If you factory reset it, your default info is:
login: admin
password: password
all lower case. you should be able to use that to log into it and change the loging password
