Trying to change the name of my router on the extender
This is frustrating. I have a new router (R7000). It has a new name and password. There are 2 speeds on the router, The 5G speed still has the name of the old router, however it connects with the password of the new router. I wanted to correct this by logging into the extender. I don't know the password to the extender access. So... I'm on the "Extender Password Recovery." I got to this by putting in the serial number of the EX6100. Now it wants me to answer two security questions. I answer the questions -- they are not answers that I don't know --- my sister's first name, my father's middle name... Then I get "The information you entered does not matcch what is saved on the routher." AFAIK I've never given this information to my (R7000) router!! I might have given it to the extender... when it was connected to the old router... Is there anyway to completely reset this extender?
CG3000D will reset but network remains password protected
I bought this router used and pushed the factory reset button when I plugged it in. It shows factory SSID but it’s password protected! I can not login to my network to make changes. I then held the factory reset button for 30 seconds and then disconnected power and plugged back in and my SSID is now 000000 still password protected. Help!Orbi WiFi System performed a hard reset to factory defaults overnight
I got my orbit set up on Sunday. Everything was working well until Tuesday morning. When I woke up Tuesday morning my SSID had changed back to ORB20. Tried to logon with my password, didn't work. All my settings were gone, a factory reset had taken place overnight. Check with the family and no one played with the system. Any idea how a factory reset and happen 'spontanously'?
