Let's explore some of the most common Netgear router password problems and find out how to fix them. In this way, you can access your Netgear router account with ease and say goodbye to password-related frustrations.
Netgear router keeps saying wrong password - causes / how to fix
Do you get a "wrong password" message every time you enter your Netgear router login information? If so, you may want to consider the last time your router was rebooted. Also, you may want to double check that you are typing the correct password.
how to fix
Fixing the "wrong password" error message could be as simple as disabling the Enable Smart Connect feature from your router's settings menu. Of course, to do this, you will need to be logged into your account.
Unfortunately, this means you'll need to reset your admin password and go through the password reset process just to uncheck that box. Still, if your password problems stem from an old and invalid password, you may need to reset your router's admin password as well.
By far the simplest solution to this problem is to discover that you have been typing a single character wrong the whole time. But password reset is a relatively common solution for Netgear router problems.
