10sec is fairly enough for TPLink ;)

I know, but sometimes hard reset 30/30/30 is last chance for factory default. Many times about this I convinced

Thank you for your suggestion, but hard reset did not work. I've opened a ticket with Tp-link, let's see what they say. Otherwise I'll have to return the router to the shop.

"The router allows only one administrator to login at the same time, please try again later."

I just registered here to vent my frustration at this too...
I setup the router at customer premise all ok. I need to forward another port so I tried to login remotely and I get this message. I even tried the same laptop as I used at the customer.
I had the customer reboot the router, no change. Now I have to make a 90km round-trip just to log-in to a router...
I hope I can re-login with my laptop once I'm there or I'll have to factory reset and do everything all over...

I'm going to have a drink now, it has NOT been my day today.

best regards
David

David, you may have to restore all settings to factory default and reconfigure it after upgrade the latest firmware.

v2 with the latest firmware here. I can login to the remote admin interface, but I usually end up having to enter the login credentials at least twice everytime. The first time I enter them, it returns me back to the login page.

Tangles, you tried different web browsers or PCs? Is it a issue coming with latest firmware or not?

Yes I've tried multiple browsers and can make it happen (and different PCs) I've tried three so far. Running the latest firmware offered on the downloads page for v2 hardware: 3.14.1 Build 140911 Rel.41201n

Mostly it happens when I try to access it from the remote management port and I'm using no-ip.com for DDNS.

Things to note: I've changed the IP from 192.168.0.1 to 192.168.1.1 (to save me the headache of reconfiguring static IPs I have on my network from when I was using a Linksys router)
I also changed the default remote port to 8080 (from 80)

When I login the first time it returns me to the login page and this is in the address bar: http://192.168.1.1:8080/SKBYCAGAMXRSHPCB/userRpm/Index.htm

When I enter the same credentials a second time, it takes me here: http://192.168.1.1:8080/SKBYCAGAMXRSHPCB/userRpm/Index.htm (same URL, so I don't know what's going on) and I have access to the admin interface with no issues.

I also just upgraded firmware and had access to UI but once I reconfigured everything and rebooted I no longer can access the UI nor the USB storage. internet traffic is being routed.
