Trouble connecting to R7000 Nighthawk

Tonight, Netgear disappeared entirely from list of available networks. After resetting and unplugging, it came back on as available, however none of us in my house can connect to the network. On my mobile, it repeatedly says I'm entering the wrong password. (I'm not.) Or it will just say that it's unable to join the network. On my desktop, it frequently prompts me for the password but doesn't say it's wrong. Just keeps searching for the network, to no avail. After I reset and restarted the modem, I also restarted both my devices. Now I'm fresh out of ideas. Help!

A reset (and I assume you mean factory reset, not power cycle) brings back the default SSID and passwords. You need to configure those again if you don't want to use the defaults. You can do so with a wired computer at the Web GUI http://192.168.1.1
Also, make sure if you're on Windows to forget the connection and after you configure everything, connect again
