Model: EC220-G5

Hardware Version: V1

Firmware Version: EC220-G5

I changed the administrator password of my router, and when I tried to log in it says invalid password. The new password is similar to this:

m;#k7'$ff2E6:Xezq3(f3#X`a>R

With 28 characters. I don't want to reset the router because it has some pre configured settings without backup. The interface should have warned which characters are allowed, this could be a feature.

Given the password as example, what combinations should I try?

Thanks for posting question here.

May I confirm your model is EC220-G5? As it is customized model for some ISPs only, we can know much less than common wireless routers.

If you can change into the new password and save it, it should be ok to use. So it is suggested to contact your ISP or local support to confirm whether there is any possible restrictions.
