Change the password recovery questions
for the local device password
During the initial log-in process, when you followed the prompts of the Setup Wizard,
you set up password recovery for the local device password (also referred to as the
admin password). This is the password that you use to log in locally to the access point
with the user name admin. If you forget this password, you can recover it. The recovery
process is supported in the Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari browsers.
You can change the password recovery questions.
To change the password recovery questions:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
access point network.
2. Enter http//www.routerlogin.net in the address field.
If you are not connected to the access point network but to the same network as the
access point, enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point. If you do not
know the IP address, see Find the IP address of the access point when you cannot
use routerlogin.net on page 27.
A login window displays.
If your browser does not display the login window but displays a security message
and does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after initial setup on
page 30.
