Hi I hit the bug where I found the solution in:

How to backup running configuration if forgot password?

by Zyxel_Stanley.
It all goes as described in the "how to" above.
But after after applying the changed conf-file I can still not log in with the password I wroted in the conf-file as described.
The change conf-file look like this as I as an example would like to use - peter12345 - as the password I would like for the admin-user:

username admin encrypted-password $4$peter12345$ user-type admin

It seems that the 'old' configuration I had running is also runnung now, but I cannot login.
The firmware now loaded is 4.33(AAPH.0). The firmware loaded when the problem started was 4.31.

Thanks.
