Can passwords have non alphanumerical characters? I think my old dd wrt device had a , in it's password. I tried to change it from the administration, I hit save. Then it prompted me user and pass, I went ahead with new user and pass. Nothing happens. I input the old user and pass. Also nothing happens. Now I am locked out of it.
