Have build 37015M on my R6300v2, and after a 30 reset, the usual root/admin combination won't let me in. Did you happen to use a different default password on that build, Kong?

hmmm 30/30/30 reset is a bad idea as it not recommended on new age routers, ppl keep doing it and
get bad experience after that, in the future either use reset button or use CLI nvram erase && reboot or GUI
reset to factory defaults..

after reset usually you have to set your new username and password its what ever you set...
for WiFi is usually the pass hard-coded on the router
check the label under or use LAN to connect im not sure 37015M is using the hard-coded WiFi password as it an old build...
the best builds for R6300v2 are Kong builds

I've had my router reset many times and there were times it defaults to the router's original password. Check the sticker on the bottom of your unit. It has the default password on it.
