You Cannot Access The Internet - NETGEAR Nighthawk RS700 User Manual

NOTE: If the router is in access point mode and you do not know the IP
address that is assigned to it, first try to use an IP scanner application to
detect the IP address. (IP scanner applications are available online free of
charge.) If you can detect the IP address, you don't need to reset the router
to factory default settings. You can also connect the router in access point
mode to your existing network using the Internet port, then connect to the
access point router and access the router web interface from
http://www.routerlogin.net/.
• If you are attempting to set up your NETGEAR router as a replacement for an ADSL
gateway in your network, the router cannot perform many gateway services. For
example, the router cannot convert ADSL or cable data into Ethernet networking
information. Your NETGEAR router does not support such a configuration. You need
a modem to connect to your cable, satellite, or xDSL service, and can connect your
router to that modem via Ethernet.
NOTE: If you use high-speed fiber Internet service, you might not need a
separate modem. Contact your Internet service provider (ISP) for more
information.

You cannot access the Internet

If you can access your router but not the Internet, check to see if the router can obtain
a Internet IP address from your Internet service provider (ISP). Unless your ISP provides
a fixed IP address, your router requests an IP address from the ISP. You can determine
whether the request was successful using the router web interface.
To check the Internet IP address:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the
router network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window displays.
3. Enter the router admin user name and password.
The user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified when you set
up your router. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
