Changing router admin password
I've just installed my new XB8 router. I cannot gain admin access to it. The article at https://www.xfinity.com/support/articles/change-wifi-mode-admin-tool-xfinity-xfi instructions are to access 10.0.0.1, use the password 'admin', and the default password on the base of the router. When I do the router responds with an invalid username/password message.
I've also tried:
- resetting the router
- using the password 'password'
- accessing the router through a direct cabled connection to the router as well as via wi-fi
From the forums, this appears to be a common problem but I can't find the solution. Please advise

A quick follow up. I can confirm the password on the router base does work. It just helps if you read it properly - even if you've read it wrong 5 time prior. Sixth recheck must be the charm.
