Change the Password

The user name to access the modem router is admin, and its default password is password.
NETGEAR recommends that you set a more secure password.
A secure password contains no dictionary words from any language and contains uppercase
and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. The password must contain at least
4 characters and can contain a maximum of 15 characters.
Note: This change of password is not the same as changing the password
(key) for WiFi access. The product label shows your unique WiFi
network name (SSID) and password for WiFi access.
To change the password for the modem router:

1. Launch an Internet browser from a computer or WiFi device that is connected to the
network.
2. Type http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Type admin for the user name and password for the password.
If you already changed the password and want to change it again, type your personalized
password.
4. Click the OK button.
The BASIC Home page displays.
5. Select ADVANCED > Administration > Set Password.
