Routerlogin.net - constant password recovery

Hi,

 

EVERYTIME I try to log in (routerlogin.net) I have to use password recovery. My username and password is correct.

 

I log in... password recovery. If I log out and log in again 10 minutes later.... password recovery!

 

There has to be e batter/easier why to access the router.

I just  bought a Netgear and found this to be annoying also. I found a solution: 

1. after logging in go to the Advance tab

2, select Administration on the left

3. select Set password

4. uncheck Password Recovery

5. problem solved

6. you'll get a warning about needing to restore to factory default if you can't remember your p/w.
