192.168.1.1 redirects to Password reset, always
After 'Reset' i try to login to admin the Router 192.168.1.1 redirects after i enter admin and password, to Password reset routerlogin.net redirects, after i enter admin and password, to Password reset - can never get passed the login page to access the management webpage like we used to also, curiously, after using the password on the bottom of the router to login to Nighthawk app, i set up a new WIFI and entered a new password and, although i 'connected to the 'new' WIFI using that password on the IOS NIGHTHAWK app, the other devices (IOS) all use the admin password as WIFI password ?? the IOS Nighthawk app actually cannot do anything useful ! what's going on ?Speed Confusion
I've got an XR450 Gaming Router and a 1Gbps connection through i3 Broadband. When I run a speedtest through speedtest.com or fast.com, my download speed comes in in the mid 900's. When I run a speedtest through DUMAOS, my download speed comes in at around 500. Can anyone explain the discrepancy and if it's a problem? TIANew - XR450/XR500 Firmware Version 2.3.3.136 Released
