When you reset, the dd-wrt GUI comes up and does not ask for you to enter an existing password! It is asking for you to choose a GUI password. The username field will default to "root" to match the ssh username, but you can set it to something else here for the GUI if you like.
And -- this is a guess -- perhaps it will not accept you trying to change the password to "admin" because it is a security risk! _________________ 2x Netgear XR500 and 3x Linksys WRT1900ACSv2 on 53544: VLANs, VAPs, NAS, station mode, OpenVPN client (AirVPN), wireguard server (AirVPN port forward) and clients (AzireVPN, AirVPN, private), 3 DNSCrypt providers via VPN.
It pops up with the dd-wrt menu and ask for user and password before i can access the services but will not accept my password before the the reset or root admin

It's asking you to SET the password, to CHOOSE a password. Do NOT try to choose "admin" as your password! _________________ 2x Netgear XR500 and 3x Linksys WRT1900ACSv2 on 53544: VLANs, VAPs, NAS, station mode, OpenVPN client (AirVPN), wireguard server (AirVPN port forward) and clients (AzireVPN, AirVPN, private), 3 DNSCrypt providers via VPN.
How to check linksys 3200 acm version number firmware ?
Or am I better off starting over with the router instead of taking chances ?
I also want to switch to express vpn since they support wi fi 6. Any suggestion ? Nord support wi fi 6 only on the software app not on the router. But I don't think linksys 3200 acm support wi fi 6
