D-Link router error: Please input the User Name
I recently purchased a D-Link router and when I try to login to the admin panel, it was giving an error asking me to input the username, even though it was already populated. Learn how to resolve this error.
I've been struggling with this error for a long time and it took a while to figure out the tricky hack to skip this error and access the admin dashboard on my newly purchased my d-link wireless router.
I was happy that I got a good deal for the D-Link router at Amazon.in but that didn't last long. When I tried to login to the control panel, the user name field was grayed out and was pre-populated with the user name "Admin". However, when I click on the login button, it kept giving me the error "Please input the User Name". This error was weird because the username field is already populated with the default user name and there was no way for me to change it.
I searched in Google and found out that several others have reported the same problem. This error was reported by someone in Yahoo Answers about 7 years ago. Some people have even reported this in the official forum of DLink and there were no useful answers. DLink has suggested many options like clear browser cache, try another browser and so on.
