Suddenly can't login to router

Have been using the Netgear WNR1000 router for several years.  Now, out of the blue, I cannot login to it.  Tried pinging the IP address but can't see it at all.  The router is still working fine as far as I can tell but I can't change anything.  Any ideas?

Connect with a different cable, to a different ethernet port maybe? Have you tried more than 1 device to make sure it's not just that one having the issue.

Re: Suddenly can't login to router

I've tried with PC via LAN, laptop using LAN and using WiFi and another laptop using WiFi but all to no avail.  I fear I may have to do a factory reset with all the grief that will entail.  However since I don't need to make any changes at present I shall probably put off the evil day!
