R7300DST cannot access router login after recent firmware update
I recently upgraded my router firmware and since then have not been able to access my router login. My internet and WiFi appear to be working fine, just can't access the router admin page. Before the...
I narrowed down the problem to the Remote Management setting. If I turn it on, after a day or so the router login stops working.

I reverted to the previous firmware (from V1.0.0.74_1.0.29 to V1.0.0.70_1.0.25) but that didn't help. Like a factory reset, it worked for a little bit, but eventually stopped after a day or so.

I agree.
I had the same problem, and from this post or another reset, reconfigured, and did not turn on remote management.
It has been fine ever since
