I have a netgear r7800, and noticed that I can no longer access the web ui. I've even restarted it, and get the same results. Is there any way I can still access it, or does it need a factory reset?

If you don't have SSH access, you last option is a reset.

which firmware number you are on ?
try to clear browser cache...
try with browser in private mode no add-ons..
try pale-moon browser...incognito mode
lots of browsers need fiddling to allow http
sometimes password managers can interfere badly...
last resort if you dont have ssh with key authorization only password disabled for ssh..than reset

Also, you must ensure that your client device is receiving an IP address on the same subnet and on wired ethernet in case you disabled wireless access to webUI, even though allowing wireless access should be avoided.
