Gateway password changed (!?) Can this be re-set?

Hello Comcast support,

 

my gateway is not accepting my password any longer. It worked in the past but all of a sudden the gateway rejects.
(FYI, I've written down the password, there is no mistake or "forgetting" possible).

 

Tried the default password as well, no luck.

 

Two questions:

 

Q1: can Comcast reset the password _without_ a reboot and/or factory reset of the gateway?

Q2: how can this happen?

 

Thank you & regards,

Marc

I have the same problem as the original poster. My router will not accept my password and I have tried both the new and the old. I saw the solution using the black button on the back of the router but I don't want to reset back to factory defaults. I only want to change the password or figure out why my password is not working anymore.

I was being helped by anohter tech but now I can't reach him. I have tried everything he suggested including power cycling the modem, and I still can't log in to my modem. It keeps telling me that my password is incorrect, which it is not. I need to get this issue resolved. I tried calling support and the recording tells me that internet is down in my area, but my internet is working so I can't speak to someone because your system blocks me from reaching anyone live. This is very frustrating and really poor customer service. I have been battling with this since Saturday. FYI: I DO NOT want to reset the modem to factory defaults, I just want to login so I can change the protocol to 802.11b so I can connect a wifi scale that I have.

I have this exact issue.  Need to reset cusadmin password at our Comcast Business Gateway without doing a full reset on the gateway.  But I think the solution was done in private msg.
I can go private to discuss (not sure how to do that though) can you reply via email -will give you all our account details.
Thanks
