N150 4-Port Wireless Router JNR1010
Types of Logins
Different types of logins have different purposes:
•Router login. Logs you in to the router interface from NETGEAR genie. See Use NETGEAR genie After Installation on page 14 for details about this login.
•ISP login. Logs you in to your Internet service. Your service provider has provided you with this login information in a letter or some other way. If you cannot find this login information, contact your service provider.
•Wireless network key or password. Your router is preset with a unique wireless network name (SSID) and password for wireless access. This information is on the label on the bottom of your router.
It is important that you understand the differences between the login types so that you know which login to use when.
NETGEAR genie Setup
NETGEAR genie runs on any device with a web browser. It is the easiest way to set up the router because it automates many of the steps and verifies that those steps have been successfully completed. It takes about 15 minutes to complete.
To use NETGEAR genie to set up your router:
1.Turn the router on by pressing the On/Off button, if not done yet.
2.Make sure that your device is connected with an Ethernet cable (wired) or wirelessly (with the preset security settings listed on the bottom label) to your router.
3.Launch your Internet browser:
•The first time that you set up the Internet connection for your router, the browser goes to http://www.routerlogin.net, and the NETGEAR genie screen displays.
•If you already used the NETGEAR genie, type http://www.routerlogin.net in the address field for your browser to display the NETGEAR genie screen. See Use NETGEAR genie After Installation on page 14.
4.Follow the onscreen instructions to complete NETGEAR genie setup. NETGEAR genie guides you through connecting the router to the Internet. If the browser cannot display the web page, try these troubleshooting tips:
•Make sure that the computer is connected to one of the four LAN Ethernet ports, or wirelessly to the router.
•Make sure that the router has full power, and that its wireless LED is lit.
•Close and reopen the browser to make sure that the browser does not cache the previous page.
