Resetting admin password on Orbi wireless mesh

How do I reset the admin password on my Orbi mesh without doing a factory reset?

On the Orbi web interface, the Advanced Tab, Administration, Set Password.

 

Of course, you have to know the current password to log in and do this.

I guess I should have said that I have forgot ten the password and need to reset it.  Looks like factory reset is the only way to do it.

If you carefully created entries during the setup, when you enter an incorrect password three times, it takes you to Password Recovery. (I have used it.) otherwise, it is "paperclip time"
