Archer C1200 default username(admin) and password (admin) doesnt not work after reseting the router
Model: Archer C1200 (from TM unifi)
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: Archer C1200(EU) V1 TM Unifi Wireless Router (Latest 16-5-2018)
Downloaded the firmware from https://www.tp-link.com/my/support/download/archer-c1200/v1/#Firmware
Update on: 12 June 2021
Internet Service Provider: TM unifi
I reset the router by holding the reset button for 5 to 6 sec then the power indicator starts blinking (green)
I reset the router by holding the reset button for 10 sec then all the LED turn off except for the WPS indicator (green)
the username and password I tried are (XXXX is the last four digit of the mac address)
username: admin, Admin, tmadmin, TMadmin, Tmadmin
password: admin, Admin, tmadmin, TMadmin, Tmadmin, tmadmin@(XXXX), admin@(XXXX), TMadmin@(XXXX), Adm@(XXXX)
all the possible combinations were tried on the 5 to 6 sec reset attempt and 10 sec reset attempt.
contacted internet service provider and tp-link technical support Malaysia, they weren't able to help with this problem.
what I observed after all the reset attempt
1. The SSID did not get reset, I connect my pc to the router through cable and the name of the connection is still my previous WiFi name
2. The wireless signal is not available on my pc or laptop or mobile phone even though the 2.4G and 5G indicator is green
