Forgot a security question while accessing my router R7800

Hi, recently I bought a Netgear router R7800 X4S AC2600. Updated firmware today to the most recent. 11/7/17

The long story short: out of three computers in my house only my main PC has slow connection. The rest of two: mac and surface have blazing fast wireless internet connection. So, I need help of figuring out what is going on.

The secong issue is that in order to acces my router I need a password. I forgot my SQ. So I am stuck in this. 

Nither you tube or other help pages from Netgear, nothig says particularly about this specific issue. What to do if you forget your security question?

Factory reset the device and you can use the default password. (See the back of the device.)

 

There is a manual for the R7800 somewhere at the end of this link::

 

>>> R7800 | Product | Support | NETGEAR <<<

 

See page 183.
