I've had to reset my password like 7 times in the last week. Due to a number of factors my ADSL router has had to resync to the exchange, and every time it does so I get a login error and I am forced to change my password.

To top it off, when you go to login and get the error, it pops up a window with a URL that doesn't direct you to anything meaningful.

To add further insult to injury, when I do go to the password reset page, I see a statement about if I'd bought a SE security token, then I wouldn't need to be doing this.

At this stage, it feels like SE's security measures are overboard to the extreme in order to annoy players enough into stumping up cash for an SE security token thing.

Back to the base issue though, I mean, come on. People need to restart their ADSL router for a variety of reasons, but the public-side source IP address will almost always be on the same network as before. Does the password reset detection mechanism really need to be so heavy-handed as to force a password reset EVERY time?
