When you disable CAPTCHA, it turns of the view of it, but when you log into your router, it asks for the CAPTCHA password, which theres no blank or image to enter it, resulting in reseting the router completely!!!

I can confirm that. Gave me a bit of a laugh at the time.

What happened after you reset it? Does it still ask you to enter it?

It's fine after a reset.

What happens is this: if you disable the CAPTCHA and log out, without resetting, then you no longer get a textbox in which to enter a CAPTCHA code, but the login function still expects to be passed a CAPTCHA code, so authentication will always fail.

After a reset, the login function no longer expects a CAPTCHA code.

In other words, disabling CAPTCHA should either (a) require a reset, or (b) trip a boolean within the login function so that it doesn't attempt to authenticate using a CAPTCHA code. I'd imagine (b) would be preferable.

Forcing a reset sounds like a better option, as it allows other settings that have possibly been changed to save correctly, and function normally upon a reboot.

There's a bug even with Firefox/IE trying to log in.
Wow!

GoogleChrome logs in fine, and Safari logs in fine.
